Yeah skippable ads is a reasonable compromise in my mind.. Show me an ad, but if I'm not interested, let me skip it after 4-5 seconds.. I can live with that i

  Actually, with adds you are not paying the content but its hosting and quick delivery.

  It's different for me. The youtube page just starts with a whitened stationary placeholder where the video should play. It has a "skip" button and I don't have to wait 4-5 seconds (watching an ad video). This is probably Youtube simultaneously testing different stuff to different people. The version I am seeing is not as bad. Previous ads where I have to wait 4-5 seconds are already dealt with by my installed ad blocker.
