YouTube viewers will soon have to sit through even longer ads, with Google rolling out new 30-second unskippable spots on a popular app.

Someone else in this thread mentioned TizenTube, that sounds like what you're looking for.

But personally I just grabbed an Nvidia Shield. It works great and if you swap out the default launcher you'll never see a single ad on it (with the right apps). Plus the pro is beefy enough to run some decent emulators too.

i have a couple of options i want to experiment with, but this tizentube thing sounds like a nice to have.
