I’d seen rumours online but got the email this morning.

EDIT: seems like there won’t be ads for everyone straight away.

  • Live events, such as sports, and content offered through Amazon Freevee will continue to include advertising. Customers in the Republic of Ireland, Channel Islands, and Isle of Man won’t see ads in their experience at this time.

Back to the high sea’s to watch anything then

Edit: ignore this. They actually do offer an adfree sub

But Amazon is not doing this. They show ads on the one subscription they have, that they already recently have raised the price for. This is higher price for lower quality and no option to upgrade or downgrade. They leave you the option to stay or leave

It says in the email that you can pay extra for ad free.

The email says you can pay $3 more for the current experience? Or is there some other subscription that makes this confusing?
