I have nothing against advertising in general, but I won't tolerate OS-level advertising and I don't want ad-subsidized hardware.
Sorry, best we can do is a premium (expensive) ad-free tier that still advertises our own products.
I don't have a problem with a streaming service doing that. Hardware, no. If I bought it, I own it and the manufacturer can fuck right off.
Ya, but if you do that, how are we supposed to make money off you on a monthly basis after you already bought the product?
