I pay a fee, I don’t want ads – just content. That’s my beef with cable and the enshitification of streaming. While I’m at it, the bitrate of both is unacceptable.

This is no longer about cost, but quality they won’t provide which is the basis of the platitude “the customer is always right”.

The customer is only right if they threaten to cancel their service

Even then, if the cost of improving service is more than one customer's cancellation, the customer can kick rocks

Advertisers can pay more to stay in the room than you will realistically pay to have them expelled.
