Q: How to loop infinitely?

The iAd examples often have a banner with actions that loop for infinite cycles. While the event strip along the right side shows "Loop    Infinite" the detail section below shows 2 cycles.

 

I seem only able to set the cycle count to some arbitrarily large integer that should surpass the patience of anyone, but that's not infinite!

 

What am I missing?

    The application enforces the best practice.  Folks will complain to the app developer if an ad is overly distracting. 2 cycles is the balance and remember you can repeat the animation of the same objects within a single cycle by reversing the actions then duplicating the initial actions further down the timeline.
