I'll save you all a click

Disney is planning to introduce “virtual storefronts” to its popular streaming services, including Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN. These storefronts will allow viewers to order snacks or pick out products they’ve seen in their favorite shows, all while continuing to stream their movie or show. Disney+ subscribers will see interactive ads pop up as well.

So, basically, stuffing more ads into the premium service you paid for (presumably to avoid ads). These people don't get it, do they?

The Mouse can fuck the right off with that. We've had subscription for quite a while since there's a ton of stuff for our kids but if they start to overlay shows with pop-up ads not unlike The Truman Show I'll rather set up a jellyfin server and dust the old pirate hat than continue to give them money.

Same. I won’t tolerate pop ups. We didn’t when the internet was new and I sure won’t when watching a show I’M PAYING TO WATCH.

These storefronts will allow viewers to .. pick out products they’ve seen in their favorite shows

This should be funny but somehow it doesn't do it anymore

Oh, they get it, alright. They're making more money than God, which is entirely the goal.

Are people downvoting because the reportrd change sucks or does the article itself suck?
