[QUOTE="Reasonably Sane, post: 77640961, member: 452228"] Yep. The internet was in its infancy when I dumped TV. I bought a lot of DVD's from pawn shops and used Netflix. But now I have two streaming services I actually pay for monthly: Amazon Prime, because it comes with prime, and Youtube Premium, because I use it for work in my band and lots of other stuff. In fact, Prime started including commercials a month or so ago. I stopped using it. When you've not had to deal with commercials in almost 30 years, it's a paradigm that is simply unbearable. Heck, I have a Roku TV that offers all sorts of free movies from various channels like ROKU, Freevee, Hulu, etc. But I would get to the first commercial and switch it off. I don't fall for it any more. They have a perfect right to support themselves with ads, and I have a perfect right to not support that paradigm. And as one youtuber said, when a product is free, it means [I]you [/I]are the product. People need to think about that when they access "free" pr0n. [/QUOTE]
