Youtube

Am i the only one who hates Youtube now? Why is it that every time i wanna watch something i have to sit through minutes of pointless ads that i eventually get so pissed off at that I forget what im trying to watch.  Ever since they came up with this wonderful idea i find myself trying to avoid the website.   I do agree that youtube has become a very popular website and i see what there trying to do with the advertisements.  i thin it is very  smart but also extremely annoying.  The good thing now is that they have given you the option to skip the ads.  But there is a catch, you still have to watch at least 15 seconds of the ad before you can skip it.  I find that this makes it more tolerable but still  stupid.  I appreciate the effort that these companies put in to not only the ad but also the strategy.  Agree or disagree?
