Cute, but they put adverts on DVDs too…

Not midway through though. I really think that 4 minutes of ads with that dramatic guy's voicover and all the zoomy effects at the beginning only, and then an uninterrupted film, would be more palletablle for streaming services to do.

You are probably thinking Mark Elliott. Also there are not a ton of these voice over guys.

Ok, yeah, that’s fair. Been so long since I had a streaming service I’d managed to forget that’s why I got rid of it!

You don't have to rip the adverts :p

Totally skippable on DVD. Some players will even automatically find the longest track on the disc and launch directly into it.

Sony and some other players made the preroll ads unskippable.

Totally skippable on DVD.

Choose:

  1. Buy dvds and be forced to watch trailers, fbi warnings and ads before the film
  2. Or open qbittorrent find your favourite magnet link, dl, and enjoy on vlc. No ads, no fbi warnings, no trailers… sometimes hardcoded korean subtitles tho xD
