Most video clips require you to sit through some stupid :15-:45 second ad.
So my question what is the longest youll wait. For me most of the time I just cancel the video.The video generally is not that important to me.

30 seconds max if its a video I REALLY want to watch....

Generally, if the Ad is longer than the actual video, I close it.

30sec I suppose. But I'm rarely in a rush when i'm online so who knows.

I just change tabs and do something else, or close the window. I don't wait.

Maybe 15 secs. When people post videos here without a description of what it is, I look at the length first; if it's more than 2 min I don't bother with it. I may try it later depending on what folks comment about it.

This.

Adblock does not work anymore because all of the sites have caught on to it. The ads are incorporated into the videos themselves.

I hate when they show the same ad before everyvideo you watch. "here what they experts are saying about modern family" I saw that so many times I boycotted? the show for that week just cause of the ads.

thats all that they do. they frustrate me and I say..im not getting tide. HEB brand this week
