I don't like the increase in commercials on Youtube but I also have the option to not go to the website at all. Complaining about something that is free, completely optional, and utterly unnecessary is ridiculous. I used to visit Hulu frequently. Then they started charging to view most everything. I stopped visiting Hulu. Complaining about it is a waste of time.

Today my YouTube views have change!

No sure what is going on, my video setting inside the video have moved within the video!

Anyone else experiencing this type of change?

I have noticed lately that it is difficult to even watch a video any more. My channel is not monetized which allows me much more creativity. With how they have it now small channels no longer have that little edge. Often when setting up jokes etc. the set up in interrupted thus ruining the punch line!

The funniest part is, all I get is religious ads for the most part. I do sometimes use these ads for content!

Yes it's really ticking me off too. I wish they'd never sold it to Google. I wish there were a good alternative not greedy profit driven. They screw over channel providers too.

I thought YouTube was owned by Google.

Funny, I have only gotten a few of them and after a couple of seconds one can skip the ad. Maybe it's the type of shows that are more affected.
