Yeah I don't wait for it either but it does cause me click the play button a few times and watch the throbber spin for a second before I do.

    I notice that I don't pay attention to videos as much any more. It's just stuff playing in the background while I game or edit an image or browse piefed or something. So if it "hangs" for a couple seconds while ublock fights the ads, it doesn't really bother me.
