Ad companies can’t handle the idea that people don’t want to be hit with ads every 5 minutes. “Well, it’s just BAD ads”… no, it’s having my experience constantly interrupted.
It’s both. I dread the coming election year, and it’s why I won’t even THINK of paying for a streaming service that has advertising. I will pay the extra money to avoid them.
I would be okay with it if the amount of ads and their length was reasonable, like one in the beginning and one at the end or something. For a longer video I wouldn’t even mind one at the midway point.
I didn’t start using adblockers until I was literally inundated and bombarded and sometimes with ads running the length of movie (no, literally).
It completely ruins the experience. I’m happy to support my creators directly though and I do.
