Commercials are bad enough. But many times they run the same commercial again during the same break. Some of those commercial break periods are up to 8 minutes long. Or there are breaks every 5 minutes or so.
Internet servers, Hulu and Crackle, are bad about that. A couple of years ago I tried to watch a movie and its sequal on Crackle. Every 10 minutes the movies interrupted for a commercial — the same commercial. Some 28 times that same damn commercial. I think I have only watched one movie on Crackle since then.
Additionally, I find those Internet services like Hulu and Crackle seem to jam and refuse to load about half-way through. The only option is to restart. The programmers still have work to do on them before they are viable.
Dittoes. I need to just cancel my Hulu subscription. Netflix and Amazon Prime is all I need.
And Crackle? Grrr. Don’t get started on that. The same Jack in the Box commerical repeated 5 times an hour is just too much!
