On Netflix it's just the intro to the show. On YouTube it's ads. Big difference
I know a lot of people disagree with me on this, but “just” the intro to a show is still an ad.
I absolutely hate ads and I hate “intros” to shows. They are one and the same. I don’t care if I have the option to tap a button to skip the intro (some services don’t even allow this), end of day is I literally pay for “ad-free” content on these services and they still manage to mess that up.
I’m open to hearing why people are ok with these intros while not ok with normal ads.
Because it's part of the show? What is it advertising? Usually there are some amount of credits. Certainly not ads.
Maybe I’m misunderstanding the post. I was under the impression that they are talking about intros/ads to other shows on the same service.
Example: I start a brand new show and I’m immediately hit with an ad for another show on the same service, before I can watch the show I actually selected.
Are you taking about previews? Yes, those are ads. The intro to a show that is the same every episode, those aren't ads, but are skipable.
Yes, the previews. Sorry, I misread.
The intro is the opening sequence of the show. People usually watch that on the first episode, but if you're binge-watching a show you don't want to keep seeing the intro over and over again for each episode.
