If you paid me just 5 bucks a month I’d let them install that fridge in my house.
Comment on Refrigerator ads are finally here!

Imagine that. You not only paid for the refrigerator, but also the electricity and the internet access. And it uses all of that stuff to display ads to you. You’re literally paying for every ad it shows you.

That’s exactly the thing that turned me off cable. I’m not interested in paying for a service that’s going to pipe ads into my home. OTA TV, fine, I’m not paying for that. When I can pay for services that don’t show me ads, why would I pay for one that does?

Don’t worry, they are gradually taking that option away too.

Then the answer becomes to get those things without paying someone to show you ads.
When the illegal choice becomes the objective best experience, you’re just a savvy consumer.

Joke’s on you: product placement in movies. The ads are already there.

Yeah, but you end up paying extra to not see ads, so… it’s the same thing either way.

So? If I’m paying for a thing, I’ll sooner pay for a thing that doesn’t have ads than one that does.
When that fails, there’s always the high seas.
