A difference between cable and streaming is that cable has DVRs that let you skip commercials if you want, while streaming tech introduced unskippable ads.

> cable has DVRs that let you skip commercials if you want

The last time I had DirecTV several channels had managed to have unskippable ads in recordings. Paramount was egregious with this and was the first channel I saw with this "feature" enabled.

I've never seen that. That's terrible. The people who put up with streaming enshittification are ruining it for the rest of us by normalizing it.
