Prime Video subs will soon see ads for Amazon products when they hit pause
Amazon is adding three types of shoppable ads to Prime Video's ad tier.
As if the Prime Video app couldn't get any worse.

If I'm being honest, I can handle an ad in my pause menu as long as it doesn't interfere with the rest of operating the device. If I can unpause and reach the closed captioning or audio menu, fine, whatever. What really gets my goat is pre-roll and mid-roll ads. Can't stand them.
I’m not bashing your opinion, if you don’t mind it that’s cool.
I do mind it. I cancelled prime years ago already because two day shipping somehow was never two day, so I’ll never see one of these pause ads.
That being said, I mind the idea of it a lot because I often pause to see something on the screen. Be it a text message in a show or something else written/printed, the cinematography, the lighting, the outfits, etc…. Fuck if I ever want an ad thrown up blocking the actual content I want to inspect in more detail.
No I get it. I don't like them, but I can live with it if I have to. Luckily my local library has enough DVDs to fill my Jellyfin server. :3
Jellyfin is great!
On a free service sure, on something you are paying for? fuck off.
