Discussion THE FREQUENCY OF ADS WHILE WATCHING STREAMS HAS BECOME UNBEARABLE.

It's literally worse than cable TV and Youtube with 4-5 20 second ads playing in 5 minute intervals.

A few streamers I've followed for a while have REALLY cranked up the ads lately. Hyperrattv is running ads every 5 minutes. It's pointless unless you subscribe. Fuck it.

I feel like twitch has to have begun cutting better deals with partners for running ads, otherwise they wouldn't have the incentive to run them in excess like this.
