I pay for Paramount Plus and they still show me ads. They can’t help themselves!

Money. It's all about the money and what people will put up with.

Dane with dazn, they started serving me ads before starting any stream last month so I'm going to cancel the subscription at the first opportunity I have to get into the cable company shop (because of course you cannot do that via web)

I cancelled Paramount Plus when I heard about the content deletions. I paid for ad-free and they started showing me unskippable preroll ads for their own shows before anything. They absolutely do not care about their customers.

Isn't it just cable all over? In the beginning cable sold itself as TV without ads, then came the ads. It seems to be exactly what's happening with streaming now.

And then these companies get mad when people return to sailing the high seas.
