If they put the ads in the stream, you can just fast-forward. I don’t think it’ll work out well for Google.

Oh, turns out each ad is 15 seconds long per an agreement to standardize playback.

Oh, turns out you can't skip the first 30 seconds of a video.

Oh, turns out if the first 15 seconds doesn't play, the playback disables entirely.
