pay 100 dollars a month for streaming services with commercials 
This is because the cheaper plans with ads are more profitable for them than the more expensive ad free plans. I was watching Hulu on Brave browser and I have an ad plan but the browser gets rid of all the ads natively. I wonder if Disney will ban me for it.Luckily my mom churns these subscription deals like credit card offers so I just mooch off of her.

streaming was good while it lasted, I will never accept paying for ads
They will if you nikkas don't shut the fukk up about Brave browser
If you think a post on The Coli informed Disney about ad blockers you are mistaken. They know on the server side what client you used and if you saw the ad or not because they get paid when you watch ads.They will if you nikkas don't shut the fukk up about Brave browser
The only flaw of this is that he doesn't acknowledge the regular cable bundle was an obsolete business model anyway. People were going to leave it regardless. He's right that the Netflix model wasn't the right one for streaming. Even Netflix has ads now.

WBD reportedly set to start charging for Max sports add-on in September
The Max B/R Sports add-on has long been rumored to flip to a $9.99 a month charge. It now sounds like that may happen soon.

Later this month, Warner Bros. Discovery is hoping to start charging customers of its Max streaming service an extra $10 a month if they want to watch sports like the National Basketball Association and Major League Baseball.
It’s a long-delayed effort by the media giant to figure out a streaming strategy for its collection of sports rights. Sports are currently free, and it’s possible the rollout of the paid plan will remain on hold. Negotiating for the rights with all of its partners has been a challenge.
As the decline of the company’s cable networks accelerates, CEO David Zaslav needs to transition his sports business to streaming (along with the rest of his entertainment programming). Warner Bros.’ cable networks generate billions of dollars a year from events like March Madness, the NBA and the MLB playoffs. While the company is about to lose the NBA, barring judicial intervention, it has since added other sports, like French Open tennis.
