    • The ads aren’t targeted properly for one thing. I see ads for stuff that would never apply to me. Such a waste of money.

    • Many of the videos already have a sponsor, so they are double-dipping.

    • Also I’m not going to sit through 60 seconds of ads for a five minute video. Get real.

    • And don’t lie to me about “Watch this long ad break and we won’t show you more ads during this program.”

    I think Prime has the right idea of front loading the ads at the beginning of the program instead of interrupting thinks every few minutes.

    I’d pay for ad-free YouTube if it didn’t cost as much as HBO. Charge $3 to $5 a month and I’d consider it. Otherwise I’ll just mute the TV, or skip the programming altogether.

    Look for a stereo plug aux-in port on the car’s stereo. You can get a Bluetooth receiver that will plug into that if there’s no usb input built into the car. This will let you listen to music, audiobooks, podcasts, etc from your phone using your car speakers.

    This also works with turn by turn navigation prompts that come from the phone.

    Just remember to keep your phone plugged into a charger on your trip so that using it this way doesn’t drain the battery.
