I don't mind those breaks... It feels like going to the next chapter in a book.
But actual ads, yea, not for a service that costs.
Though this whole thing is funny - they collect even more user data than they did with cable or broadcast, and now want to show you ads too.
Can't wait to finish my media server setup.
I don't mind when it's an obvious break followed by a new scene. I do mind when the break is in the middle of a scene and they essentially replay the last thirty seconds before continuing the story. It just feels very disjointed and dated.
Ah, yea, that seems more like something that wasn't intended for breaks.
Definitely disruptive.
