crunchy roll have these surprise ads that can be over ten minutes and these folks seem to try to hawk their music videos. I guess its a cheap way for them to get exposure and they are hoping to make it big or something. Anyway one of the first I saw was super inapropriate and was not while watching mature content. swearing and near nudity.
God yeah, My kid was watching something about 5-6 years ago on youtube and it went from a fucking cartoon to, I shit you not, a 2 hour infomercial about some fitness product.
That's the day I started making sure the kids had adblock.
