    I’m sorry but if i pay for a service that’s ad free and they put ads in the media i’m watching then i will instantly cancel that service. Anyone who doesn’t is just enabling that behavior.

      Happened to me with HBO Nordic. I mean HBO Max. No. Max. It was an episode of Rick and Morty, and the ad was on the video itself. It was like it was downloaded from somewhere. Cancelled in an instant.

      I’ve graduated to not considering any service they has an advertising tier. It’s like being in the court watching Gríma Wormtongue whisper into the ear of King Théoden of Rohan. No amount of concessions is good enough, they’ll always ask for more.
