What a wonderful world we live in - boneless chicken with bones, ad-free streaming with ads, unlimited plans with limits... What's next, Nestle releasing microplastics and cadmium free water (guess what's in it!)?

    Ad free with ads isn't new to me. Paramount Plus will sometimes show pre-roll ads. They're usually ads for other shows on Paramount and you can skip it right away, but it's an ad nonetheless.

    I could go without the unskippable 5 second branding bumper though.

    HBO does this too, I've been told they get away with it because it's a trailer not an ad, as though there's a difference, but mate, I'm already watching Star Trek, you don't need to suggest I watch Star Trek.
