I cancelled sky a few years ago. They charge £30 a month and then put adverts on. Adverts are 1% of their revenue, so £3 a month.
If I watch 2 hours a day that’s 20 hours of ads a month, or 15p/hour.
I’m currently subscribed to nowtv to watch GoT. There’s an unskippavle advert at the start for other shows. That’s just about acceptable for the 6 times i’ll use it before cancellation.
DVDs used to be as bad, and I almost entirely stopped buying them because of it. they don’t seem to come with adverts now though.
