I've pretty much stopped watching TV because all they show are make-up and tampon commercials.

You base your TV viewing on the advertising?

He's not alone: I cancelled cable a couple of years ago for two reasons, the cost (for little to no value), and the terrible UX of ad-funded viewing.

Streamed shows with no ads, ah! Wonderful, good value, even at a higher price (Netflix, IMHO, is leaving money on the table).
