Why the fuck is everyone adding MORE ad's. The whole point of getting rid of cable/sat was to get away from ad's and have content on-demand.

From the post:

>When Amazon introduced ads on Prime Video in January 2024, it said it aimed to have meaningfully fewer ads than rivals—reportedly, just two to three-and-a-half minutes per hour. Less than 18 months later, that number has quietly doubled. According to six ad buyers and documents reviewed by ADWEEK, the current ad load on Prime Video now ranges from four to six minutes per hour. And while that could bring down CPMs, buyers will be watching whether this impacts user experience.

I've found a raspberry pi 4 to be more than enough to run osmc or libreelec.

Against my better judgment I bought a new RPI and just got it setup yesterday. I intend to test it out as my main media center PC starting tomorrow.

The micro pc's, one will be a spare or run some random services I am testing and the other will go to be another media center PC in the house. Only 2 tv's so that kind of is it.

I am interested to see how the RPi stands up. I have a wireless keyboard and a USB remote, etc.... Maybe Ill write a review in a few weeks.
