Nothing convenient about paying to be exposed to ads. It’s the same ones who are also all flocking to meta services. All rushed over to use stuff like tiktok and the ones who are more likely to click thumnails with idiotic faces over finding them offputing and skipping them. Also the same ones who take medical advice from non medical experts.
They dictate what becomes the standard unfortunately and drag everyone along.
I mean I don’t agree with streaming services having ads, but this isn’t really some new thing.
You’d pay 100+ a month for cable and be inundated with ads. Most of those 190 million “active” subscribers are either old enough that it’s basically just going back to the status quo or forgot they were subscribed etc.
Ad tiers on a streaming platform that previously didn’t have ads is new thing, and people paying for it can’t use the excuse they were unaware something like that existed. They are knowingly paying for the ad experience after having experienced the no ad experience.
190 million idiots. These idiots are the ones shaping our world whether we like it or not. They are numerous and decide what is acceptable.
Don’t confuse convenience with stupidity.
Ignorance, maybe.
