Recently, there has been so much noise about the phenomenon of indiscriminate TV charging that even the People's Daily has come out to criticize this phenomenon, describing it as "ugly to eat".
With the development of the times, smart TVs have basically occupied the market and entered everyone's homes, I have to say that the viewing effect is improved, and the program list broadcast has also increased, but the question of charging is really disgusting, especially cartoons.
If you don't have children at home, you may not understand, now all animation programs, as long as they are on-demand, almost all of them need VIP to watch, if you don't buy it, then you can only watch the first three episodes.
And children, unlike adults, can find another way ah, you can not watch, willful up, either pestering you, or you can only buy VIP for him to see.
This is not the most critical, the most critical is that this VIP is partitioned, you watch movies, there are movie VIPs, watch TV series have TV series VIPs, watch cartoons have animation VIPs, each has its own need to pay for items, if you want to watch them all, you must buy them in a partition, repeat purchases. This kind of calculation is simply step by step, step by step, in short, the little money in your pocket is clearly calculated for you. I don't know what other ways to charge in the future.
Turn on the TV, give you a paragraph of advertising This is inevitable, almost 15 seconds, open the set-top box, and then a seven or eight seconds of advertising, I once searched for similar problems, the manufacturer's explanation is, you need time to turn on, if there is no ad, it is a black screen state, it is better to insert some advertising.
When you have everything ready, the advertisement is watched, the VIP purchase is finished, sorry, there is a single point area, this is not within the scope of VIP services, you need to consume separately, some people must say, no one forces you to watch, you can not go on-demand.
Indeed, this is like all unified bronze membership, you can enjoy the rights, but after all done, suddenly a gold member appears, and then tell you that you are not enough rank, we upgraded. How to say, the toad lies on the surface of the foot, does not bite its diaphragm.
In this way, you first spend the money for the installation, then pay the monthly usage fee, and then VIP processing, so that you can barely watch most of the programs.
Of course, the various advertisements and so on that appear in the middle, you can't avoid it, you only have to accept it.
According to the survey, almost all smart TVs now have such a situation, manufacturers and online TV marketers need to earn this understandable, after all, everyone needs to eat, do any industry is for money, but can not be too much, "wool" to make money, so that the general public group is really a little unbearable.
However, you can't see anything at all in a month's VIP, I recharged the movie VIP, I remember at the beginning, the speed of movie update is quite fast, after the basic theater, it can be released soon, and you can watch it at home, so it feels quite worthwhile.
But as time goes by, the speed of updating is getting slower and less, even if one or two are updated, or online movies, in the recent update, most of them are those unknown actors, unknown films are indiscriminately filled there.
Could it be that this month's VIP fee was paid just to watch two online movies?
