I believe the future will have ads that will not play without you watching them. As soon as your eyes are off the screen, the ad pauses until you look back at the screen.

I get the tube in london and I’m certain the adverts know exactly when my hands are going to be occupied - tapping in/out, getting on and off the escalator or carriage. They time it perfectly so I’m forced to listen to the whole thing

I'll take all the time it takes to skip an ad. It's about principles.

You know this actually happened with Blip.tv back in the day that would have you sit in wait for 3 minutes before you could watch the video you wanted. Yes this was when Maker first bought it.
