Don't they really piss you off? I hate having to sit through some idiotic commercial for some piece of **** I'm never gonna buy almost every other time I watch a video on Youtube. Guess that's what we get for having Google buy them out.

Adblock.

They want to make money from it, I would rather pay to have an advert free version but hey ho.

Adblock.
Yeah, I use adblock too, but it still doesn't block ads from YouTube videos.

Nearly as stupid as sometimes having to input a capatcha due to it claiming there's a high influx of people on my connection using Youtube or some crap.

You sure you're using the right version? It's supposed to block them all and I haven't watched an ad on YouTube in years.

It doesn't bother me so much...I use youtube voluntarily so I know that if I'm using it then I will have to put up with whatever ads/propaganda they are going to try to throw in my face. If I don't like it, I can just close the browser. Just as if you don't like the news, you can just turn off your TV.

I put adblock on my computer at work too. Watching ads is horrendous, but youtube has the worst of the bunch.

Yeah, the amount of ads on YouTube has gotten ****ing ridiculous. If I wasn't so lazy I'd switch to using that other video site, whatever it's called again.

ghostery.

Yes I hate this, pandora too. I started paying the $3 a month to have ad free listening at work and it's worth every cent.

I have an app on my phone that someone modified to remove the ads and allow unlimited skipping.

Actually I get no adverts at work or home, I adblock everything.

None of the apps that were posted in the great software thread seem to have commercials.

I just alt-tab until it ends. Much better than having to pay for service.
