Like, why bother? It will have the same effect as 4 minutes of black screen.


Five seconds every 5 videos and nobody would skip them. Hell, 5 seconds per 10 minutes of video. They could use audio ads. "Toyota," Youtube says, as I appreciate it not loading anything sizable. "The new Thor is out Monday," read by one of 100 disappointed blonde girls that swore they had the part of Valkyrie sewn up. That's it, it would have worked forever, nobody would be bothered, nobody would install uBlock Origin specifically for this, they would have created a new kind of advertising that would have lasted forever.

But ad people are STORYTELLERS and now we have them honestly thinking people are going to sit through a 4 minute Youtube ad.

(I hate my industry, I just hate some others as much.)
