Or you could simply use an Adblock so you don't seen the Avertisement ? What kind of question is that ?

Does adblock work on youtube videos? I'd probably pay a dollar if I could skip the ads on 1000 videos if that's what you're suggesting. I think Youtube will earn more than a dollar from those ads though so I'm not sure if it's worth it to them.

as long as there is ad-block there is no need for paying for any kind of service

Not really. I rather save that dollar and use it for something else. I usually can skip adds after three seconds too, but if its longer I just try to do something else while I wait.

magic actions is the best. it blocks pre-video ads, it blocks in-video pop-up ads, it sets all videos to HD, it sets all videos to wide screen, you can control the volume with the mouse wheel.

Op, even if you have not adblock at all you will be able to skip youtube commercials after 3 seconds. So your calculations is wrong to begin with.

yep, I also use adblock

however, it might be a very interesting business case TO USE BITCOIN for general public

btw, adblock might not work if publishers will start to use other techniques for revenue (paywall?) and/or tracking of actual display of ads...

You can skip YouTube Ad in 5 seconds
Would you pay $1 to skip 1.000 & save 83 min / 1h23m of your life?

=> This could be usecase for higher acceptance of Bitcoin
