   Ah, that's interesting. Gingerbread.   
      
   I have a similar problem with iOS 7.1.1 on one of my iPads.   
   I updated one of the iPads to 9.whatever but the kids deplored the move   
   (youtube now gives *multiple* ads, they say, in their videos!).   
      
   The same youtube link on the older operating system (which we kept on 7.1.1   
   because Apple kept breaking stuff with each new sub release) has only one   
   advertisement per video.   
      
   And, on Android, there are *never* any advertisements on youtube videos   
   (but Android has so many options that it isn't even fair to compare to iOS   
   when it comes to playing and downloading youtube data, particularly just   
   stripping out the audio data - which is absolutely miserable on iOS and   
   trivial to do on Andriod - like most things iOS versus Android).
