Dailymotion forced me to disable my ad blocker to access the site. I did and there were three long, identical ads before the video began. After the video had played for about three minutes, more of the same long, identical ads played.
I get that they need ads to generate revenue but if they overdo it (which is putting it mildly), it completely ruins the experience for the viewers.
I thought TV ads back in the day were annoying but they were never this invasive.
