I'm tired of Failblog.org being such a whore to advertisements. I have to wait :30 seconds for a video commercial, that I can't turn down or pause from the video player, just to watch a :10 second clip.

And it's every video.

Ehh they make money off of it so they wont have to pay for the site. Its a cheap load of crap but they do it for money reasons only.

I don't mind the ads at all... after all they're providing us with "fails" for free!!

But recently they're fails haven't been as good as they used to be :S Specially they're Youtube channel ... what do you guys think ?

Click on the FailTV link and watch five videos. Just the ads alone....

Black Ops is :34 sec long
The treadmill one is 30
Then there are a few 15s

No ability to stop or pause them either.

The site can't be THAT expensive considering there are ads everywhere. Its one thing to have some side ads to play folr the site, but EVERY video....that's just whoring yourself out.

Not really.. they only get a some odd number of cents per ad view. Sure, it adds up quickly, but you've gotta think about server upkeep, site upkeep, etc.
