I've always wanted to prove as true the statement that "it's not the size that counts but how you use it." Immature humor... so at home with LinusTechTips.

Sorry for the late show of gratitude guys. Been very busy lately with work. But still, thanks much for the feedback!

Does it help youtube content providers (particularly Linus) if I allowed the pre-vid ads to finish instead of skipping them? Or is the unskippable 5-second intro enough for the content provider to earn his keep? I use adblock when I watch youtube videos. But then when I'm working, I disable adblock and just let Linus' playlists play in the background. Does it help them out or should I just stop this "playing in the background" nonsense and just allow their ads to load when i watch?

I already posted this question on another forum post, but I have yet to get a reply. This is the actually the opposite of the ad block topic, but does it help youtube content providers (particularly Linus) if I allowed the pre-vid ads to finish instead of skipping them? Or is the unskippable 5-second intro enough for the content provider to earn his keep? I use adblock when I find time to watch videos, but then at work, I just let linus' playlist on youtube play in the background. Does it help them out or should I just stop this "playing in the background" nonsense and just allow their ads when i watch?
