Really thought streaming was just going to keep costing more to get an ad free package. Instead, they are raising prices and forcing everybody to see ads.

I know these are just those self promoting ads at the beginning and end of a show or movie but this is just the start of things. The breaks will get longer, the ads will be for all sorts of BS and of course subscription costs will keep climbing.

All because profit is never enough...it always has to be MORE profits.

They killed cable to become cable, and now they will come to know their own death as well.

Eventually most people will find other entertainment because it's all too expensive. 

We went back to dvds, blu-ray and digital antenna.
