The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I have been a full Premium subscriber for a few years now, so I am not aware of how shittified the ad experience is.

I see the difference. My wife is a subscriber and I'm not, and she gives me the most expressive glance when she hears the start of a screaming ad from my iPad...
I don't care about the cost, but I prefer to be without the tracking and profiling that the subscription necessitates. (other than deleting all cookies after each visit and logging in again each time)

The interesting thing is how much the ad situation changes depending where I am. In some places I get the same single ad over and over and over. I counted 16 times in one video. For the longest time there were no ads at all inside Monaco.
