For me, it's not about the value of my time (calculating like that is a huge can of worms, and realistically, most of us don't work in the time we save by not seeing ads, but watch an additional episode instead). I just loathe ads. I gladly pay 9€/month for the ad-free experience on Netflix. (Plus, in Germany, everything on TV is dubbed, and it's hard to enjoy that if you know the original. Netflix offers the original soundtrack.)
