-The break meant that there would be at least 15 minutes of no ads after

-During that long break you had the ability to empty your bladder, or get more snacks

-You didn't get repeats of ads during that singular break

-The ads weren't targeted to you specifically, but targeted to the viewers of the show you were watching

-The advertisers saw value in "quality over quantity"
