Isn't it all just a classic enshittification curve? Start with low price, no ads. Soon it's higher price if you want to avoid ads. Then it's higher price plus ads and we took away the content you wanted. Then the content you wanted moves to a different platform so you cancel and move over there. Rinse, repeat. For any given provider there might be a few shows that make it the choice of the moment, but when charges start closing in on $40+ / mo per provider, consumers will make choices. Don't get me started on the mess that is sports content.
