TIL that 74% of Netflix subscribers would rather cancel their subscription than see ads.

Thats because the point of paying for a service like Netflix is so you DONT have to see ads. You’re paying a monthly fee so that they dont need the revenue from ads to pay the bills. That’s it. Thats the whole point. The catalog for streaming can be lackluster but there’s some good stuff there and ads during a marathon of Dexter would be obnoxious. Why do you think so many millenials dont even do TV anymore unless their ISP forces them to buy at least their bare minimum TV package to get that internet? Because it’s overpriced and you get to watch a show all of 7 minutes before youre now basically paying to watch ads (on top of all the channels you will never watch). You get what? Something like 6 minutes of ads in a show with a runtime of 30min? Its annoying.

Is it alright to watch shows with sex scenes if you skip over them and are solely watching for the plot? Or should you avoid the show altogether?

There’s actually a program called VidAngel that skips inappropriate content for you. Otherwise, yeah it’s fine if you do that. I personally skip them altogether because I don’t want my viewership to support that kind of content. We REALLY need adult-oriented shows that don’t have that stuff in it, it’s giving us dumb shows with dumb plot points and pointless, awkward sex scenes (that and pointless gore just for the shock factor)
