I’m really enjoying this and it has titles I’m not seeing anywhere else. They seem to have worked out the technical issues others have reported during the first few weeks.

There is some really good genre stuff here and unique indie gems, but the ads are so frequent and repetitive it is almost impossible to watch. Is there a way to at least program them to appear in a somewhat natural spot? They happen not only in the middle of scenes, but in the middle of shots. Several times they appeared again after just 30 seconds of program. It’s too much. I’d love to support the platform but I can’t get through a movie.

Every time I load this app I get hit with ultra right wing extremist commercials, so it’s clear I have to restore my purchase in order to not see commercials. So I do that, but there are still commercials. Look. There are standard apple interfaces for channels, possibly too many, but this app should be using the one that Arrow and Criterion use, or, on the bottom end, the one that Night Flight and Shudder use. This one is a nightmare. I can’t even log in.
