I have seen the same, as well as a higher pay per click, but I don't think that is only because of this new ad format. In fact I haven't seen this ad on my own sites yet.
I am a fanatic. So?

Seems like it is counterproductive. It's like being shouted at, "Just in case you don't realize that this content is an ad, WE'RE GOING TO MAKE SURE YOU SEE THAT THEY ARE GOOGLE ADS."
To me it takes away from the ads and were I an advertisor, I would not be happy. Is G more focussed on advertising themself or their advertisors?

I think you have a point here, we will see if this ad format is used often (in never saw it until now)
