The primary function of software designed to prevent advertisements from appearing during video streaming on Netflix is to enhance the viewing experience by eliminating interruptions. This software aims to provide uninterrupted access to content, mirroring the subscription model’s implied promise of an ad-free environment.
The perceived value of such a tool stems from the desire to avoid mandatory advertising, a common feature in many streaming services. Historically, Netflix differentiated itself through an ad-free model. The introduction of ad-supported tiers has created a market for methods to bypass these commercials, allowing users to potentially enjoy a lower subscription cost without the associated advertising.
