Still less than cable/broadcast which runs fifteen to twenty minutes of ads per hour. Given time, I’m sure streaming will catch up.

Just a matter of time until you can't chose what to watch on the lowest tier, you have to follow their playlist of what you should watch.

And we have come full circle back to broadcast TV

The irony of streaming services

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 1 points 2 days ago

Streaming costs billions a year for each service out there. Paramount has to cut its losses by cancelling shows, and Amazon with ROP draining so much

Exactly, I miss more ads in my life*. Amazon is truly lacking.
