Cos you haven't already. You're a par boiled frog and didn't even notice.

But they haven’t added unskippable unavoidable ads yet.

When/if they do, that’ll tell a story.

The issue is by the time they do, they control the market and not much alternatives.

Thank god old mates kept sailing for rest of us were funding our future enemies because it was convenient

You're paying for a service AND you get ads? Sounds great.

[–] hightrix@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

No. I don’t pay for a service that has ads. That’s what I just said. If they add ads, I cancel.

[–] beeng@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 month ago

Ads you can skip are still ads, even if they're 2s.
