Its better than going back to cable. I’ve been commercial and ad free for years. Its weird how people reference stuff from them and I have absolutely no clue any more.
My parents ask me pretty often if I’ve “seen this commercial” and every time I remind them that I haven’t watched TV with commercials since moving out after high school. Tried to tell them about the site I use for streaming but they were put off by the buffering that happens sometimes
It’s not even totally fair, the companies have lots of data on habits, economy of scale, peering, while the pirates have a questionable reputation, risk of law enforcement action, technical hurdles slowing adoption, and delayed access to media. Pirates’ only real advantages are lack of pressure towards unsustainable growth, and lower costs.
The companies fighting against each other are losing an unfair fight tilted in their favor. It’s kind of embarrassing for them.
But the sea is rising forcing people to become pirates.
I’ve been on the “nothing a month” plan for years.
Sharing is caring!

One can hope. The best things come when the pirates start showing up. Companies are forced to actually compete in a fair market
