Im not against sponsorskip.
I'm just pointing out that this should be the job of the premium team at YouTube, not left to subscribers.
so:
- Sponsorskip is a good solution to a problem that shouldn't exist
- If YouTube cared they could make this an even better experience and make sure both honest producers, paying customers and sponsors got a better deal. Today the revenue maximizing play seems to be to add sponsors on top of premium and hope advertisers doesn't realize they are being skipped.
