I would imagine I'm pretty safe in postulating that virtually no-one on here likes adverts on the telly. Personally, I do everything I can to avoid them. This is now almost impossible as even the BBC cnannels now advertise their own programming between programmes. Another thing we can thank the septics for However, which ones make your blood boil the most? My current pet hate when it catches me unawares is "Daisy, Daisy, Daisy, Daisy" ad ****ing infinitum. Just why?
Never watch adverts. Record everything via series links and watch it when I'm ready, means I can skip the adverts
Feel your pain my anger is saved for those adverts who take a good tune and turn it into something **** This years offering is All the Small Things
I watch catch up tv or prime. The most annoying thing for me is that the sound level on the programme I'm watching is so low, you need the volume on about 90 to hear it, the adverts then come on (at unexpected places and normal sound levels) and blast your eardrums so they're ringing for ages after.
Anyone who has ever sat in a hotel in usa with time to kill will report that Americans have 2x the add breaks, min. One example I had was I say ridiculousness on mtv. There's actually 3 adds in 30mins which means you get about 5 or 6 mins of show and then 5 mins of adds. In UK its bad enough with 1. Just one thst occurred to me. All the streamers will force the ads on us.
I don't have TV over antenna, only internet, so almost never watch adverts. There's only a couple of channels I watch that occasionally have them and they're extra obnoxious when you're used to being rid of them and then have to deal with them again.
we are stuck firmly on sky (for now) The missus has shows and thats that, right? well some are headed to disney, some are stuck on whatever **** show passes for terrestrial tv but sky is obscenely expensive. its actually more likely people will migrate to unlocked dodgy services. My mate has an amazone fire stick he got and sent it off to this crew that put a streming thing on and boom 4million channels for 50 quid for the year. now i'm sure he will be losing that a few times a year but this is less than 1 months sky all in given he has every sports channel and every movie channel and so forth and so on. I think this is the next bubble to burst and is propbably deflating right now with meta and twitter. amazon and disney are losing catch massively on tv i hear.
I've done this for about five years now, only lost it once in that time (only had a month left anyway) Like you say, with the risk when the year is less than a month subscription. Still have to pay for internet though
Disney are losing customers at a rate of knots for all their woke stuff. Expect Netflix will go the same way with the palace exposés.
Iptv Internet protocol television Mines 80 a year and its a great service. You get the lot with that, sports, ppv events, movies, TV shows, and thousands of live channels too.
I only been using mine about a year, but not had an issue with it yet and there's a customer chat on telegram which is useful. Score 5s a bargain though
An hour long show typically has 15 mins of ads over here. Which is why I don't want regular TV. 30 min shows are I think about 22 mins in length with 8 mins of ads.
TV providers can't win. Be too liberal and people will leave, be too conservative and people will leave. People expect their political tendencies will be reflected in the companies they interact with. Look at news sites. You can't get balanced news anymore, (at least I can't in US, UK may be different) EVERYTHING has to be told through a liberal or conservative standpoint. You have to pick, which bias do I want to get my news from
