Has YouTube Run It's Course ???

I was thinking to design a tiny algoritme to index all youtube's download url's. So far as i know the url's are fixed.
And then save this url's with a tiny picture of the content. This info would be nice for program's that want
to play music without commercials, and data can be saved on the fly. Music or content can then be mixed by dj's.

 

 For now the software I use is doing ok in dismissing the commercials before they are seen That said it's always
 this cat and mouse game of bypassing ads or the ads forcing their way onto the screen.

I still laugh when i read somewhere on the net " click here if you do not want to see adds anymore" !
I never see any adds anywhere, youtube included.

I am pretty annoyed by advertising on YouTube, but at the same time, I understand perfectly well that this is just someone's way to make money. Perhaps I wouldn't mind making money like that, but I'm not a content maker at all. It remains only to watch at the embodiment of someone else's fantasy. I still don't see any reason for myself to subscribe, so for a while, I tried to use converters like loader.to . Yes, this is a really good thing, but damn, I'm losing my sense of some kind of authenticity. After all, YouTube is not only content, it is also design and comments, it's my habit, after all. It doesn't affect me in any way that someone is making money, while I have to watch a stupid 15-second video about a phone I can never buy. Now I think, maybe this advertisement doesn't bother me so much .... Sorry, just thoughts out loud.

  I am not much of a content creator either . I don't have the time, and lets face it some people can naturally be entertaining
I am apparently not one of them. I post when I can in the hopes of it helping someone else who may have questions on the same subject as I am filming, or as a type of documentation incase I need to repeat something.

Sounds silly but I got rather excited to see ads on my channel cos I figured Youtube thought I was worthy enough to steal some of my traffic. 
Its got about 20 videos over 10 years.... starting with driving a Toyota around an island before doing some plasma stuff which are mostly quickies done on my phone..

I wish! last time I went out was last November. A mate was trying to get me back into a 4WD club.... I will say combination of a body lift for clearance, super high approach angles from my barwork, factory locker and the traction control meant I almost fell asleep!

It does seem that after a certain modification point a vehicle becomes so capable that off-roading looses it's challenge.
