The problem is that there's no alternative to "free plus ads or tracking" for most services. If I could pay a reasonable fee for all the content and services I need, I'd do it. I can do it some places, but other things just aren't available.
- SargeZT 8y agoThat's not the case with CBS. You can absolutely pay for CBS All Access.
- acdha 8y agoDo they turn off the ads if you pay? Many sites don’t offer a no-ad option at any price.
- monochromatic 8y agoEven if they don’t display the ads, I’d expect them to keep tracking.
- eslaught 8y agoFor the record there is a level you can pay for CBS All Access that turns off the ads (at least on original content, which is I assume the only reason anyone would sign up for it anyway). It costs more than the ad-full version, but that's basically what you're asking for, right? But like sibling said, they are presumably still tracking you. I don't think consumers have really become aware enough of tracking for "no ads, no tracking" to be a viable thing yet.
