Subscribers can expect to see an average of 4 minutes of ads an hour at around 15 to 30 seconds each
Isn’t this a lot? I can’t imagine watching a movie and being interrupted every 5 minutes by an ad.
Do they clump them together and play 8 minutes of ads between the two halves of a two hour movie?
Back in the day sitcoms are 21minutes so around 8-9 minutes if ads in half an hour. 4 minutes is probably tolerable to some. But this is still a paid tier of Netflix right?
Cable tv used to do 42 minute shows with 18 minutes of ads. It probably still does, but it used to, too.
It’s probably 1 or 2 minutes of ads every 20 minutes.
I have Peacock and Paramount for certain sports and they do this too. I Don’t mind it on Peacock, but the way Paramount does it is absolutely terrible and I’ll be canceling my subscription once my yearly special rate expires. Peacock will generally show about 3 minutes of ads then let you watch a whole movie. Paramount seems completely random. Sometimes you’ll have 45 seconds of ads, then you might have 3 minutes of ads less than 5 minutes later. They’ll regularly have 6+ mins of ads in 30 mins.

@realcaseyrollins I suppose that wouldn’t be the worst way to spend the increased profit.
the new norm is the old norm, sailing the high seas.
