Youtube

How many of you watched youtube 5 years ago and loved it because there were no advertisemants? I know I sure did. But now youtube is putting more and more advertisements before the videos. Now youtube is offering something even more for people wanting to advertise. They are adding guaranteed spots before certain youtube clips. What do you guys think of this? I think it is agreat way to market to people but at the same time do people want to see advertsements when all they want to do is watch videos? Do you think that youtube could be hurting its customer base by continuing to put more advertisements before their videos? This will be intresting to see if this type of marketing will work on youtube.
