This is why I'm sailing the high seas again.

Because the underlying conditions are the same as last time.

Went to check out the "Mr and Mrs Smith" series on Prime (with Donald Glover), and was notified that there would be ads now unless I upgraded. I almost never watch anything on Prime, but figured "why not, I already have it"... and then immediately closed it when I saw that message. Switched back over to Stremio, cause why the fuck would I watch ads when I already pay for the service? Gotta convince the wife to cancel Prime, but it's next on the chopping block. Only ones left will be youtube music (family still uses it) and Debrid (which will stay for as long as it's good). Netflix, Hulu, Disney, ESPN, HBO... all of them gone
