This because with streaming services you don't have to deal with ads inherently. Anyone (most) born after 2005 don't understand the amount of time we had to watch commercials on TV back in the 80', 90's and 2000's. Also with streaming you get to bindge watch what you like, but that wasnt possible then either. Tivo changed that but you still had to wait for the program to be recorded before you could skip the ads..

i think it’s just ignorance to be honest. They just accept it and refuse to see a better way or differnt way (as you just said. 

Just no. Accepting a way of things, compared to being ignorant are not remotely the same thing. Your words speak volume to the ignorance you are showing in this statement. Choice of action is not ignorance its choice. To assume or presume something at face value is rude, and not accepting that other person doesnt have made that choice [whether through understanding or ignorance] is presumptuous.
