Streaming with commercials? Only if you get .99 a month deals or pay less to stream with commercials. I have Paramount plus and Prime and don’t see any commercials.

Hulu that I got for .99 cents a month and $1 a month for Peacock I do -— but during movies, there’s 3 minutes of commercials at the beginning, not a big deal.

Am I missing something from the article? Because I pay $40 a month for internet, $22 for streaming and no money for “peer to peer” streaming...a total of (about) $62 per month with no commercials.
Before the switch to streaming, I was paying $220 for basic cable plus streaming.

Never going back...
