Open it to continue watching a show- 2 minutes of ads. Find the episode, start it- 2 minutes of ads. Forward to the part I left off at, 2 minutes of ads.

Fucking garbage.

    You can have it standing up within 30 minutes and $15/month. Nothing to learn, it’s all web apps.

    Whatbox.ca. Load plex/jellyfin, a torrent client, and sonarr. Honestly, it’s not hard.

      I can pay less than that and not have ads on the app. This is barely a lateral move.

          Because I’m not giving money to someone because they think annoying me is the only way to get it. We don’t reward bad behavior where I’m from.

            To be clear, I’m not suggesting you pay them. I’m suggesting you either live with ads or do something about it.

            The $15/month seedbox gets you anything, not just what’s on Paramount.

              Then there’s the VPN, and by the time it’s all set up, it’s costing as much as just paying for add free. Either way- you’re paying someone.

              I don’t even mod a few ads. It’s got to make money somehow. But the amount is absurd.
