Thought this might be a helpful discussion for those who want to cut down on advertising breaks when they have multiple options to watch a show or movie. Below are my results for Tubi, followed by a summary of this subject’s URL, which someone tested in 2021.

My results today (3/19/24) for The Mental State (2022) https://tubitv.com/movies/100016371/the-mental-state Film length: 104 minutes. By my stopwatch, ads totaled 11m44s (approx 90s/ea), about 12 minutes between each ad break. So I spent about 10% of the time watching ads. Compare to about 6% on the 2021 survey below.

Anyone else want to watch The Mental State or something else on one of the services below and report their results?
