I remember watching TV a while ago. I think it was paramount?. But for every 5 minutes of movie they played 10 minutes of commercials. It was the most infuriating thing I ever saw. Abandoned the movie after 30 minutes.
Peacock has ads when pausing a movie to read the text

Well they need to pay their teams of engineers dedicated to adding ads everywhere, that ain’t cheap!

I noticed this on a relative’s YouTubeTV, that when I paused to read the screen, it threw garbage up on the screen over the text. “Mildly infuriating” is right!

This seems more than mildly infuriating

I’ve never once had a commercial on Jellyfin.

Note to self: Hi self, you’re awesome! Thanks for not spending all my money on streaming services that treat you like shit, and keep raising prices. I shall continue to not buying peacock…or hulu…or netflix.
“No commercials version, $3 extra…may contain commercials.”
Fuck the core concept of that.

I was on an airplane the other day, the ticket advertised free wifi, but in reality you have to watch ads to unlock minutes.
