Amazon Doubles Prime Video Ads Per Hour - lemm.ee

I’m old, so many may not relate. I remember when the big selling point of this newfangled “cable TV” thing was zero ads. Can you imagine that?

Yeah, I have Prime for the savings on shipping. Got the Kodi addon for watching Prime, never used it except to watch The Expanse a few years ago. Would have been fucking enraged if I had seen ads cut into that. Fuck am I paying for?!

Some time ago i found a old VHS of karate kid that i recorded. That was on free open tv and the commercials were super short. And i think two for the whole movie. I downloaded some trash tv like 60 day fiancee, and it was accidentally an episode where they left the commercials in. That was the most insane shit i have ever seen. They streched a 45min show into a 1 1/2 hour show. With the same pharma commercials over and over all the goddamn time and then the recap after every commercial. This shit has to rot your brain in some capacity.
The worst are reality show “result” episodes. Seriously, you’re doing a two hour special with extra ads, all about recaps, when the only goal is to announce who won last week?
