Better not be advert breaks in the service I PAY FOR, or else I'm out.
I'm not paying anybody to serve me adverts. Ever.
Their application is already god awful, and their database is built incredibly poorly (what idiot decided that different seasons of one TV show should have entirely separate listings in the database, often making it hard to find?!).
AND, they're constantly trying to shove extra paid stuff down my throat, like something called Paramount+, in the thing I'm already bloody paying for.
I'm already at the edge of my tether with these people for their crappy service. If they introduce advertisment breaks into a service I'm paying for? That would be a direct insult, and I don't stand for that sort of thing.
Likely this is legacy from when you would buy each season as a DVD set
Paramount Plus is the worst streaming service with the second best content
God their UI is horrendous.
I read somewhere that streaming content has to be filed with a weight and dimensions because their database only understands packages.
