Has anyone else experienced this abomination that Google is doing with Youtube when you want to watch a video? I'm so tired of these damn ads. Have any of you seen this?

You mean the ads that pop up on the bottom of the video? They are quite annoying but I just close them out anyways. I miss the old Youtube >_>

Oh no! An ad for Zapatos has covered 10% if the screen. This partially obscured video is ruined.

can firefox block them? I haven't seen one yet so I'm not sure if one of my prexisting blocks owned it.

No, it's a 30 second video or longer that you have to watch before you can view the video you clicked on.

No. I have never ever ever ever ever ever ever seen those. Ever on Youtube.

I haven't seen any pre-roll ads on youtube before. But I hear youtube is a huge money sink for google so expect it to get worse, because google needs to increase the advertising revenue it gets from service.

i was watching a video just right now and i didn't get an add, so maybe its just the video you watched.
