Amazon is putting Ads on Movies

[Mr Jt (Gog is king)]

If you are an Amazon Prime Video user, get ready to see ads on movies and TV shows starting this month.

And the only thing to avoid them is to pay them more money. That’s pretty shady tbh.

People left cable for streaming because they were TIRED OF PAYING TO BE ADVERTISED TO!

Then they wonder why more and more people are "sailing the high seas" again.

Every country does.

You pay a premium for more premium content that isn't offered for free anywhere without theft.

Yeah, heard about this a few weeks ago. It'll be interesting to see how end users react.

[Kobs]

If a number of customers drop them, they will rethink their decision... can't blame them to try

Why not. People who still have cable TV or satellite TV still have ads. So why not streaming services. You have to pay to access the aforementioned so might as well put ads on streaming services.

Cable is not a thing here as for the last decade Minimum... Netflix and all these exists

oh nice, time to go bsck to the oldy musty TV.

Love when they announce an old banger movie and put underneath it... "Comming soon". Oh boy, probably in a month or a bit more

Once we get closer and closer to the date "Next monday, at 00:30 am"

Okay. Monday comes. Banger time. Each 5 minutes of movie, 15 minutes of ads.

Hour and a half movie turns out 4 hours lol. And then lets wait another year or so till another movie gets old enough and REPEAT.

At least its free

They may start with less obtrusive ads to get us hooked, but just like cable, the creep will start and ad time will get longer and longer

[AlienTestosterone]

Ads in 5.4.3.2.1.

Unsubscribe from the service. Problem solved.

But then, how are you going to watch TV shows?! If you're not paying for a million subscriptions, you're not living!

(AFAIK: Netflix has ads too, so Amazon isn't alone here.)

That's easy. I don't watch shows. Heck, I don't even remember the last series that I viewed.

as long there is not too much advertisements then I don't mind , there is still the benefit of just watching what you want and when you want.
