No freaking clue why these services can’t just have a “I like to watch the whole thing, put suggestions after the credits” option.

This is very dumb, but if you start the movie from the Home Screen of the Apple TV app, it minimizes the credits for whatever recommended program it serves you. *However*, if you start the movie from the library page in the Apple TV app, it does not. Again, very dumb, but there is a workaround.

The same people who won’t let us watch the next episode automatically.

That’s happening with purchases now?! Really annoying having to click “watch credits” on those services. Long live discs

For shame!!!

…because it makes an unwarranted assumption where full user control, including the ability to skip unwanted content, was already available. A skip button would be an acceptable alternative, if standardized.

Honestly I feel like the only way to truly exert ownership over this stuff is to buy it, rip it, and host it on your own media server customized to your preferences. The digital “buying” experience is just going to keep degrading with every corporate merger and attempt to make the user the product

They should at least give users a feature toggle to decide if they want it or not.

I complained to a free public streamer and was told that it was ‘industry practice’ And they do it to promote other films that they stream, which can found via their catalogue
