I love reading the comments from people who say they refuse to pay for a subscription that includes ads. I mean, more power to you, but there was a time when we all paid hundreds of dollars a month to the cable companies to get constant ads and garbage stations (and many still do). Even before that (and still) we paid hundreds of dollars on TV sets to watch TV shows with ads over the air. This is really no different. Don't think of it as paying for ads...think of it as paying for the privilege of using your mute button and getting up to pee once in a while.
