I listen to music at work on YouTube because most of the streaming services are blocked at the firewall for some reason.
I get the need for some ads on a "free" service, but YouTube has worked in a new and totally intrusive way of inserting ads. Instead of an ad between songs, the ads now appear about 15-20 seconds before the end of a song! You will be just listening along when suddenly a jarring change in pattern as an ad comes blaring out of the headphones. (in typical fashion, the ads are always louder than the music)

I'd complain to YouTube but that would only prove to them that someone hears the ads.

Don't the advertisers realize that pizzing off the customer is not a good business model.

Anyone else see this phenomenon?
