Can I just say how annoying these “Hover to Play” adverts are?
If people want to see the video they will click on the advert. They won’t hover over it so that the video will start in a few seconds. It’s obviously just designed to catch people who have no interest in the advert, but inadvertently leave the cursor over it.
