Damn_Underscore 05/13/18 12:58:45 PM #1:	Some people say they literally don't use Hulu because the TV shows have commercials. They act like they've never watched TV before. Commercials on Hulu allow it to cost less than Netflix, and more importantly have much better content. --- Shenmue II = best game of all time Shenmue = 2nd best game of all time <cite>Damn_Underscore posted [p:901274582] in Are people...

LinksLiege 05/13/18 1:05:09 PM #5:	I bet there's some way to get around the ads anyway. There is/was one for Spotify if you used it on Android.

SomeonesAlt 05/13/18 1:06:40 PM #6:	Is TC old enough to remember that cable was once ad free too? Paid services having ads on top is double dipping. Some companies even triple dip by selling your information directly to interested parties. --- But Whose? <cite>SomeonesAlt posted [p:901274906] in Are people...

Root, xposed, throw a module on there - free premium without ads. Hulu is pretty good about that; playing it with an adblocker might still block the ad, but it just gives you an error message for 120 seconds saying "we use ads to help keep costs low, pls turn it off" All in all, a better alternative to being yelled at by commercials, but you still gotta wait --- Not removing this until Pat Benatar is in Super Smash Bros.
