You might ditch, but they have enough data that says enough other people aren't going to.

Just remember whenever you're annoyed by something and think "why is this a thing? This annoys me so it shouldn't happen", there's thousands of other people who can live with it or just don't give a shit.

Consumers mostly don't even care about the content. Over the last 15 years they switched from cable only to now be back on cable again disguised as streaming.

Or they don't feel like they have a better option. I have never met anyone who said, I like adds on my streaming service.
