Amazon Prime’s ‘Family Man’ Release Sparks Debate: Viewers Complain About Excessive Ads on OTT
Amazon Prime Video faces backlash as viewers complain about excessive ads during The Family Man episodes, reigniting piracy debates across Telugu states.
Viewers express frustration as Amazon Prime Video inserts multiple ads during episodes of The Family Man, sparking debate across Telugu states.
Currently, there is a big discussion going on in both Telugu states about the issue of 'piracy'. Everyone has known about it for a long time. But the arrest of 'I Bomma' site administrator Ravi has once again become a cause for discussion. Many common people say that they support Ravi. There are many reasons for that. Producers are increasing ticket prices as they please, and in addition to that, parking and food prices in theaters are also said to be high. In addition to these, it seems that another problem has also been added.
Last Friday, the Telugu dubbed web series 'The Family Man' was released on Amazon Prime. Compared to the first two seasons, this time it seemed okay. However, many users are expressing their impatience on social media, saying that there are four to five ads in each 50-minute episode, which makes it annoying to watch the series. While some are watching it while enduring the ads, others are posting that they watched the series on a piracy site for this very reason and did not see a single ad.
A few years ago, people used to watch videos and movies on YouTube. Due to the excessive ads, many of them shifted to OTTs. Now, ads are also appearing on OTTs like Amazon and Hotstar. With this, even after paying money and taking a subscription, these ads are getting annoying. They are expressing impatience that there are 4-5 ads in a 40-50 minute episode. If this continues, it is guaranteed that people will reduce their viewing of movies on OTTs as well. Even then, the producers will lose.
It is true that piracy has decreased somewhat after the arrival of OTTs. But now they are also placing ads for money. Such greed.. has more chances of causing more piracy sites to grow and flourish. If we take Amazon Prime Video.. some movies are released directly. Some are said to be on a rental basis and can only be watched after paying some money again. Many channels are shown. It is said that to watch movies on them again, you have to take a separate subscription. Although all this has been going on for the past few days.. recently it has come to light once again due to the 'Family Man' series.
