Wonder will every single vid have a six second ad? Say, with funny animals, one vid follows another automatically, so an ad before each would be very tedious.

Might cure my addiction though.... so there's that! 

Yeah, at least with some sites, once you've cleared your cache (then/when things revert back to the start again)   you have the option to stop the follow on

My view essentially comes back to the old line regarding social media: "If you're not paying for it, you're not the customer: you're the product.", so I don't really see how we can complain about it. Although if enough users start to get annoyed with it, I  can potentially see a competitor stepping in, though...

 

Haven't given it a lot of thought yet, but I did wonder though: a lot of FMs (including myself) post YouTube clips here: is that going to be a problem in the future, seeing as Gaga have their own advertising ?

they're not going to give away content with no revenue stream.    They'd go bust if they did.  That's capitalism for you!  I don't think YouTube should be nationalised and if so it would be nationalised by the American gov't and they'd expect a return for the US taxpayer,  so we're stuck with adverts.
