Disney is planning to introduce “virtual storefronts” to its popular streaming services, including Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN. These storefronts will allow viewers to order snacks or pick out products they’ve seen in their favorite shows, all while continuing to stream their movie or show. Disney+ subscribers will see interactive ads pop up as well.
So, basically, stuffing more ads into the premium service you paid for (presumably to avoid ads). These people don’t get it, do they?

The Mouse can fuck the right off with that. We’ve had subscription for quite a while since there’s a ton of stuff for our kids but if they start to overlay shows with pop-up ads not unlike The Truman Show I’ll rather set up a jellyfin server and dust the old pirate hat than continue to give them money.
It’s also an article about another article from Variety that actually has a better headline. These things are a pet peeve for me. Hey, here’s a story from an actual news service and I’ll even include a link to it, but I’m going to post my link all over so people will see the ads on my page instead of theirs. Variety does some good reporting, I’ve rather they get the clicks.

Good news! Even more ways to buy shitty products with all your favorite meaningless brands splattered over top of them. But only if you subscribe now!
I’ll save you all a click

Would you like to buy more?
Arrrr, they don’t.

Same. I won’t tolerate pop ups. We didn’t when the internet was new and I sure won’t when watching a show I’M PAYING TO WATCH.
Oh, they get it, alright. They’re making more money than God, which is entirely the goal.
We need to be autocritic here. Most of us don’t get it. That’s the problem.
This should be funny but somehow it doesn’t do it anymore
Try not to spend money challenge
Level: Disney adult
Challenge: impossible
Quite possible. The solution even puts the money you spend on their disservices back in your pocket.

Are people downvoting because the reportrd change sucks or does the article itself suck?
Nondescriptive title, I think. Ppl here tend to be quite tired of clickbait, as I’ve noticed.
