    At his point, I see more advertisements using the computer the way I do than on TV. News channels, 30 second add to see the video clip. Effin Youtube I have to sit through a commercial to watch the vid I want to.

    I ditched TV years ago and went strictly online to avoid the commercials. That is gone now.

    I'd like to make some of these CEOs of these online streaming companies sit with me and just watch their crap and see how frustrating it is to have to watch so many advertisements just to get the content I want to get to.
    In the town where I was born
    Lived a man who sailed to sea
    And he told us of his life
    In the land of submarines
    So we sailed up to the sun
    'Til we found a sea of green
    And we lived beneath the waves
    In our yellow submarine

    Go straight up subscription streaming channels. Netflix. Disney plus. Peacock. Hulu.

    Does Amazon have commercials?

    Amazon Prime is just brutal to scroll through and watch. I enjoy the unlimited music app I get through them for my phone, but we rarely watch Prime tv.

    Netflix is also pretty garbage interface to find something to watch that is outside the top programs.

    I have liked a few Netflix programs, but I agree, whoever thought it a good idea to use a virtual keyboard operated solely by direction keys on a remote does need to be shot without trial...

    there are websites that display all the content as text in a list, but it's still not perfect.

    The only thing I watch on Netflix is Forensic Files, and to be fair they had Angel Has Fallen, which I wanted to see. But that's like the first movie I've watched on there in over a year.

    I have HBO and Starz through Amazon Prime and ok, they have recent movie releases each month and the selection is not terrible, but there are so many movies from years ago that I WANT to see, but not right now...or the next time I'm on there, or the next.....

    Hulu has become my go to streaming service for this reason.

    ESPN+ is pretty bad too. If they don't have your show pinned on the home page, good luck finding it

    I was shocked to see that so much of Hulu's lineup is on other platforms.

    The fact that the movie V for Vendetta is highly regarded by anyone, anywhere. Noisy, noisome and utter garbage. My brother in law dragged me to the theater to see it. He loved it. I spent the entire movie wishing I could walk out.

    Clickbait 'listicles' where the picture you clicked on isn't even in the listicle.
    Championships since purchase by John Henry group: Red Sox 4 Yankees 1

    The Red Sox are 8-1 in their last 9 postseason games against the Yankees.

    How about clickbait in general?
