I don't have the money to sustain the "everything is a subscription" simple as that. So adblockers and piracy is the only way to get media content.
I still go to the cinema, but some cinemas over here are already experimenting with subscriptions.
It’s like what cable networks did back in the day, if you want to view a channel, subscribe to it. We have come full circle.
Good lord they are going to put ads again in streaming services aren't they
They already have.
Where? Haven't seen one on Amazon prime, Netflix or HBO yet
I've started getting ads for other shows and movies on Prime. I'm sure they'll start putting other ads in front of the actual content too soon
Peacock, Paramount+, Hulu, and YouTube TV all have ads or ad plans. Some even just have ads on popular shows no matter the price you pay.
Uhhhh
Wait Netflix has ads?
They have a plan with ads and just removed the basic plan as well.
Well fuck me sideways
