I have red, still plenty of ads.


What? I’ve had YouTube premium for well over a year and literally never seen an ad that wasn’t part of the actual video I was watching, added by the creator.


Ad thats part of the actual video is an ad too.


That obviously doesn’t count, as there really isn’t anything YouTube can do about that.


Google could respond by forcing them into an AdWords-like program and making embedded ads unskippable.


That absolutely count. Youtube can ban this kind of video.


... which you can pretty easily fast forward through.
