Youtube

[thesshhh]

These days (I don’t recall this always being the case) you try and listen to an album on YouTube and every few minutes adverts come on. So annoying. Is there a way of stopping these ads appearing?

[spathiphyllum]

Yes, by paying for youtube premium. People want things for free but nothing in life comes for free. You either have to spend time watching an add or money on a premium service.

No adverts on utube for me. Use an Ad Blocker

[kvalidir]

Ditto :)

[spathiphyllum]

If the world did that then we'd have none of these nice things AB included.

[spathiphyllum]

Spend 5 secs waiting to skip an ad or spend the rest of time unable to use youtube because it lost so much revenue it had to make it a subscription service only.

But its my decision whether to have an Ad Blocker "on or off" not the worlds.
AB is not Ad Blocked by me, so freedom of choice is mine ☺☺☺

[spathiphyllum]

My point is why is AB different to youtube? Each need an income to be a free service. They get that from 5 second ads

[spathiphyllum]

It is why soundcloud had to make over 40% of its staff redundant.

[thesshhh]

What is an ad blocker and how do you obtain one?

[spathiphyllum]

It is usually an extension to the browser you’re using

[BANANASPLITS]

Is there a spath blocker available ;-))
