Yeah this sucks, but do they have any alternatives? How else do they make money? Or is everyone mad because the amount of ads they show is disproportionate to the amount of ads they need to show?

YouTube made more money than Disney in 2925. Tell me why unskippable ads are justified.
No one here wants to talk about the realities of running such a massive video hosting operation.
No one is a serious competitor due to how large of a mountain it is to climb to compete. With every minute that goes by, YouTube becomes even more massive.
