Seeing the news of Amazon Prime Video introducing ads into its existing subscription tier has made me realize the value of a service that has no advertisements mid-stream — but it’s also made me reminisce on of how things used to be.
I’ve always been oddly proud of the fact that I’ve never paid for a cable or satellite TV subscription service in the UK, such as Sky. For those unaware, you would have a satellite dish installed somewhere on the outside of your home, and there would be a set-top box connected to your TV.
