Very good point.This is something I could possibly get behind. I'm not sure why this hasn't happened sooner. You can already watch "free" TV OTA using an antenna with commercials. So why has it taken this long for something similar to arrive over the internet via streaming?
Yeah, this was exactly why I've never touched Hulu. Subscription just got you a bigger backlog available and earlier access to new shows -- think you got to watch them 1 hour after release versus 1 day, and you could go back the entire season vs just most recent 3 episodes, but commercials were still there. Commercials are the biggest reason I pay to get rid of them. I just got fed up with SiriusXM and dropped them because they became too commercial heavy (talk channels), same thing with DISH - I'm not paying ~and~ dealing with ads. One or the other, but both is ridiculous and abusive.I remember when Hulu first came around, and it had commercials. I didn't mind it so much in those very early days. I watched a bunch of movies and some shows, especially at work. That's how I first saw Firefly. I haven't used Hulu since those early days, but I think I remember hearing that even those who paid for Hulu+ or whatever it was called still had to f*ckin' deal with commercials. I thought they were paying to avoid that sh1t?
