How about invest in actually using all the data you have on me to show me ads for products I would actually be interested in? I wouldnt hate ads so much if it wasn't so repetitive and for crap that is useless to me.

Mobile game ads are the worst now. I could not turn ads on and watch with others because its soo bad.

Would they make it worse than watching ads?

YouTube is one of those sites that are so powerful.

Could they not just show less frequent ads but charge more for the advertising space? Surely they get decent click rates on their ads compared to the average web sites.
