“A major pain point with ad-based streaming is when the ad repeats too many times or viewers seeing ads they don’t feel are relevant to them,” explained Sarah Lee, a research analyst with Parks Associates, a market research and consulting company specializing in consumer technology products, in Addison, Texas.
