  &lt;p&gt;Such rapid growth is fuelled by the massive popularity of online video sharing sites, which&#160;have created a massive online audience for advertisers to target. Some see Google's recent acquisition of YouTube as a vote of confidence in video advertising. &lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;While the growth is impressive, online video advertising still only accounts for around 2.6% of online ad spending and, though this is predicted to rise to 11.5% by 2010, other advertising techniques will continue to dominate. &lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;Additionally, there are barriers to further growth in online video advertising &#8211; comparatively high production costs,&#160;as well as&#160;the problem of how to keep customer engaged with the adverts.&#160; &lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;A recent study by Forrester Research showed that &lt;a href="/blog/453-users-turned-off-by-in-stream-video-ads"&gt;80% found online advertising inserted into video content annoying&lt;/a&gt;, and the majority of those ignored it. &lt;/p&gt;
