  He's not asking how to block the ads. He's wondering
why they vary. It seems an interesting question to me,
but I don't have anything other than Windows computers,
and I only see what I can download with Download Helper,
so I don't know anything about Youtube ad injection,
addition, or whatever it is they're doing. I've never seen
such ads.

   I have noticed that some videos can't be downloaded
with Download Helper, which raises a vague error along
the lines of "it may be protected content". I wonder
how that works. It's all protected content insofar as
Google/Youtube put a lot of work into obfuscating the
file source. But they're all still downloaded files, so I
don't understand why DH can't get around some obstacles
but can get around others.
   It seems to me the "artists" would be better served
adding the ads to the video itself and then allowing
direct download. Then again, maybe that's already the
case. I don't follow Taylor Swift so I don't know whether
her videos show her drinking Coke(R) or using Clearasil(R). :)
