The fact that they keep pushing the envelope with more and more ads and higher costs show that people are willing to go along with it. That is sad to think about
No one should be surprised, cable tv played out the same way. Got you hooked on content and then started shoving ads in so often they sped up credits or ran the credits under the commercial break to squeeze just a biiiiiit more out of you
Then they sped up the actual tv shows. It's crazy, and they got away with it.
