Agree - I’m subbed to All4+ at the moment as I’d been away for 2 weeks and there was a fair amount I wanted to catchup up there. Plus a few comedies I missed earlier this year, so it just makes it nicer to stream stuff without the ads.
I believe for both All4+ and ITV Hub+, any shows “with ads” are purely for licencing reasons - so it’s usually imports but the ad is never more than 1 “channel promo”.
Isn’t it something to do with the US broadcasters not wanting to give the whole show away (if recorded off the service) with no interruption? It’s why Family Guy was never on iPlayer
