Ads Should Be Removed From Videos.
We went to the Internet to escape television. And the ads have followed us into our movie previews. Heck now here in the theaters

I hate advertisements.
They are the most annoying thing next to wet socks.
I truly wish they would die.

Sometimes I'm on YouTube and an embedded ad appears. What's up with that?! They already litter the site with ads in other places!

Ads pay for videos.

Besides, how else would you find out about cool new products you want to but?

Sure it a pain in the *** but where else are people going to advertise, companies need to and have the right to advertise their products, sure it's annoying but it has to be done

Companies need ads to sell things, you need ads to know what's for sale, and I like ads.

Without ads, everyone loses. So just take 10 minutes out of your episodes to watch some previews.

Ads should not be removed from videos. Many companies who make the videos depend on the ads for funding. Above all, how in the world would we ever know what is on sale if there were no ads in videos? They show us what is available in the stores and sometimes, they remind us of the things that we may need. Some of the ads are even funny. However, I do agree that they do not need to play the ad a million times. They should run the ad for a day, then change it. Watching the same ad over and over can turn one against the product. Like television sit coms, the ads have to be changed frequently in order to maintain interest.

Ad's are everywhere these days. You can find them almost anywhere, so its inevitable that some would be place online.

The internet has popularized the culture of free. People now expect to be able to get virtually anything for free through this magical portal called the internet. Stuff we once paid for in the real world, such as music, films and articles we now expect to be provided gratis through our computers. Unfortunately, people have to work hard to put those things together, and their work has to be compensated in some way, otherwise they wouldn't bother doing it.

For years, the online world has been leeching off the real world, as companies earned their actual revenues in the real world and used them to subsidise their operations on the internet. They weren't really sure what this whole internet thing was all about but, hey, everyone else was doing it and if they decided to skip it, they might end up stranded one day if it turned out their was money in it.

Real world revenues are now being adversely affected by the availability of free content online. Newspaper circulation, even television audience is diminishing; record companies are struggling; even video rental stores are close to being wiped out. The situation is not sustainable. At some point money has to enter the system to pay for the content creation.

People have mostly proved reluctant to take out online subscriptions so the monetisation of content will have to come about through advertising. If you want all of these resources to continue being available to you for free, you need to just suck advertising down and accept it.
