Never noticed so much advertisement

Right at the start. You see Burger King stuff on the table, then the radio comes on talking about Toyotas. Then when Marty leaves a Burger King is right next door. On his way to school the guy in the jeep pulling him on the skateboard is wearing a Mountain Dew hat (Pepsi product and Pepsi is in other places in the series). 9 minutes in they show you the cool new Toyota truck he says is so hot. I really liked those Toyota trucks, and Pepsi is my cola of choice (7up for clear though) so I'm not hating because I don't like that stuff.. The product placement is just so in your face and I didn't notice it so much when I was young.

California Raisins got a refund for having their product associated with the bum on the bench and Miller had an arrangement where they didn't pay to have their trucks in the movie, but supplied beer to the cast and crew.

Hardly. You forget that every TV used to be named after the sponsor and the actors would do ads In character during the broadcast.

No, the kind of product placement you describe also predates the 80s, there was product placement in the 60s and 70s, basically any tine you see characters mention or use a real product, it is an intentional product placement.

Product placement like what we see in BTTF really took off after E.T. ate Reese's Pieces and sales went thru the roof. Before that Hollywood usually had to get permission/pay to use a product in a film or tv show. Now it's the other way around, companies pay Hollywood.

I always thought Ghostbusters would've hilarious if they had gotten the rights to the real Pillsbury Doughboy. (How sacrilegious would that be!) I don't think they even bothered trying, back then it was such a bizarre concept--and expensive--to have a real product featured so heavily.
Like you said, since the late 80s, product placement has been a normal part of filmmaking & profits. Nowadays it would be bizarre for a movie to invent a fictional brand as prominently as they did with Stay-Puft.
