| To add to the specific example of twitch, their ads are broken and annoying as hell. The broken: - they still don't have the volume of ads under control - the android app regularly freezes during ad display - sometimes it disrupts and buffers the stream without then displaying the actual ad And possibly more, I wouldn't know since all these are enough to make me either not watch twitch or block ads. I disable it once every few months to see if it got better though. The annoying: - the same ad every time often (when The Grand Tour started again this year, it was the only ad that ever played for me) - most ads seem to be trailers for TV shows or movies. Most of those spoil half the story - if you just want to see what some streamer is doing you have to watch an ad first Twitch Prime was the only reason I still had Amazon Prime when it removed ads officially. Not anymore. Twitch turbo was great before Twitch Prime and I had it. But now it's 9,99€ per month which I find outrageous, especially because the streamers will see very little of this money anyways, afaik. |
