The point of the discussion was about gateways to other 3rd party content, which all of my examples fall in line with. But even Netflix, Spotify, Plex and Prime Video all have content produced by 3rd parties available via their apps.
Then what about shopping sites like eBay and Amazon? It’s not multimedia but it’s still an interactive process where you can access adult content.
