I pay a fee, I don’t want ads – just content. That’s my beef with cable and the enshitification of streaming. While I’m at it, the bitrate of both is unacceptable.
This is no longer about cost, but quality they won’t provide which is the basis of the platitude “the customer is always right”.
The customer is only right if they threaten to cancel their service
Even then, if the cost of improving service is more than one customer's cancellation, the customer can kick rocks
Advertisers can pay more to stay in the room than you will realistically pay to have them expelled.
... Which means that businesses are making 'too much' money on top to sink into such endeavors, no?
