     Now to find free Apple TV again.
    If you earn more than £75k per year, you can open a Barclays Premier current account. This gives you free Apple+ TV.

    If I earned that much I wouldn't be trying to cut back 😂

    I watched a few shows and there have none at all!

    If I got 1, it was once during the show and only for 30 seconds.

    If there was like Now TV, Prime etc, I do what I always do, get all the ads done out of the way at the beginning and then watch the episode with no breaks.

    Haven't tried Netflix with ads, I signed up whilst on holiday and despite declaring my address as the UK and obv using a UK CC I'm still charged the overseas rate which is considerably cheaper than the UK one. 

    I do have Prime Video with ads and it's ok, ads before everything and some things, mainly longer TV/Documentaries an ad break every 45 mins or so. Most films dont but occasionally I seem to get them. 

    Netflix is different though in that some content cannot be viewed on the Ads version, no idea the frequency or relevance, they claim it is a small percentage.
    I like that when you pause Prime Video, it shows you the name(s) of the actor(s) on screen at that point. 

    Amazon X-Ray, can provide extra content / bonus content where applicable, though at a basic level is just a list of names.
    Wouldn't be surprised if its pulled across from IMDb - which Amazon also own.

    It is IMDB content.
