YOU can get the service that you already paid for it ad free ( before it got ads in them ) for 9.99$ more than the old deluxe option.

Its like altering the signed contract you did with them when you subscribed the first time. ( its just how i feel NOT legal advice )

It’s getting to the point that it’s almost worth going back to cable since they all have streaming now too. Why pay for 6 subscriptions when you could have just one like we did in the 80’s.

Then:

Couldn't DRM a VHS cassette, either. Sit for 2 hours editing out the commercials (as we used to call them ) transferring to another tape.

Now:

Pirate streaming sites do not have ads in the videos and have every thing ever from everywhere instantly for free.

But tbh the georestrictions, the trickeling of new series 1 episode per week are stupid.
