You were talking about the streaming platform specifically as an industry.

it's an industry that's earning literal billions every single year...they absolutely don't need to have ads, they could serve their paying users a good ad-free product, and still make money. They choose to deliberately annoy their paying customers because they're fucking greedy.

It's okay to be corrected.
