What a sweet deal! Thanks Hello Fresh!
They really said
🙅 “Disney+, with ads on us”
👉 “Disney+ with ads, on us”
“endless entertainment” “7 days”…
It sure sounds like the entertainment has an end… at the first advert break
WITH ads? Fuckin awesome coupon, thanks!

They don’t even have content worth piracy.

Idk. The mandolorian was the bomb.Com & i really enjoyed both seasons of loki.

I would never steal. I will, however, infringe on copyright.

I know what you mean but the way I read it in my head is that you’re making your own movies using their characters.

At least that way I can have the proper versions of Star Wars.

Every time I see mention of piracy, I hum the song Yo Ho (from Pirates of the Caribbean) instinctively.
How ironic.

I get “Can I talk like a pirate” from Jake and the Neverland Pirates appear in my mind.

Imagine suscribe to YouTube premium and still watch ads…
KingJalopy@lemm.ee 3 months ago
Imagine subscribing to YouTube instead of just newpiping that shit.
skulblaka@sh.itjust.works 3 months ago
I have really, really mixed feelings about this. On one hand I understand that YouTube is a business and Google needs it to at least approach profitability. If nobody watches ads and nobody pays for premium, there’s no profit. No profit means the adpocalypse gets worse to make up costs, or else the service gets shut down.
On the other hand YouTube is such trash compared to what it was even just a couple years ago that I also use an alternate front-end.
I don’t want it to disappear because I really don’t think anyone else has the resources to do what Google has done with YouTube. If we lose YouTube, especially if we lose it and aren’t left with access to the data store of existing videos, we’ve lost an incredible amount of information. Millions of hours of tutorials and good information will be taken away from the world, not to even mention the billions of hours of entertainment. I don’t want to lose YouTube and what it means for international informational accessibility. But I’m also not going to sit through twice as many ads as I have video.
I foresee YouTube going to a cable-TV-like subscription only model in the future. I don’t like it. But I don’t see how else they actually lift themselves out of this hole they’ve dug.

In-video shilling is a thing
SomeGuy69@lemmy.world 3 months ago
In the last, even the most shady company was giving away stuff for free. Here you got to pay to by watching ads. Disney is a thug.
CileTheSane@lemmy.ca 3 months ago
And if Disney poisons you 10 years from now you can’t sue them!

Not just ads, but also unactionable anaphylaxis! It’s a steal really.

They will also ban you for using an adblocker Why? Cause they need the money
primrosepathspeedrun@lemmy.world 3 months ago
not just block video, but ban? wow. its like they want you to pirate.

Would be a real shame if your wife were to suffer an allergic reaction and die after you agreed to this free trial, leaving you with no legal recourse despite our restaurant’s demonstrably inadequate precaution!

Pro tip: use Firefox+ublock origin for no ads in any streaming platform Pro-er tip: sail the seven seas!
dab@lemmy.world 3 months ago
The first ad that autoplays after subscribing is the cursed videotape from The Ring. Then 7 days later Samara’s ghost crawls out of your tv.
Eheran@lemmy.world 3 months ago
So the ads are “on them”? What does that mean? I have honestly no idea. Why is there a “on us”?
renzev@lemmy.world 3 months ago
The name of the subscription tier is “Disney+ Standard with Ads”. So you’re meant to parse it like “Subscribe and get 7 days of [subscription] on us”. But yeah it’s total word salad. It’s like they’re deliberately trying to weed out people with common sense.
caboose2006@lemmy.ca 3 months ago
Careful. If you sign up for Disney plus and then Disney kills your wife YOU CAN’T SUE!
kamen@lemmy.world 3 months ago
This promo aside, it’s ridiculous that people are okay with paying and still seeing ads (and to think of it, it’s been like this since the days of cable).
A free to use but ad-supported tier is totally understandable, but the way we have it today is borderline absurd.
demizerone@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Seven days of ADs for free is a fucking rip off.

renzev@lemmy.world 3 months ago
There’s something so on-the-nose about having “with ads” as part of a subscription tier’s official name. For decades companies have been coming up with euphemisms for their low-cost services (e.g. “economy class” on airlines, “community edition” for freemium software). But now here we are with Disney pretty much saying “Go watch ads you poor bitch”. It’s the death of a euphemism. They’re selling a crappy service, and they aren’t afraid to say it.
turmacar@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Disney is also actively arguing in court that if you use the free trial you can’t sue them for anything. Ever.
Even if you die in one of their Hotels because one of their restaurants didn’t care about your allergy
So there’s that to worry about now.
DakRalter@thelemmy.club 3 months ago
What the hell. I hope the judge tells Disney where to shove their arbitration clause.
techwithjake@lemm.ee 3 months ago
But I can’t use the same logic to yarr-harr their content even though I pay for the subscription. It comes with Hulu Live TV + no ads so I have to have it.
LodeMike@lemmy.today 3 months ago
Its provably an advertising regulation thing where they have to put it up front to not get sued?
renzev@lemmy.world 3 months ago
An, that makes sense. Thanks!
JohnWorks@sh.itjust.works 3 months ago
Wonder if we could get cable service to add “with ads” to every tier they have lmao
