However, at the time you were only interested in rigidly defending your view that there would be no ads, no nay never.

My next prediction is that free-with-ads is only an experiment to see what the appetite is like and draw punters in. Eventually those ad-supported tiers will have a subscription rate of their own, just as Sky does today. Ad-free in the long run will be a premium service
