I have no idea what you're saying. People who cut or shave the cord are no 
longer viewing those live streams. Most of these people watch on demand, after 
cutting or shaving. The ads that reach them are ads they view in the on demand 
streams. And I never said I contributed to lost revenue.

And what is important to ads in on demand streams is that viewers have decided 
to sit down and watch a show, and they cannot skip the ads.

I'm again unable to see what point you're trying to make.
