No end to greed of corporates.
Jio used to show ads in hotstar and certain apps initially in the jio stb, later on they started showing ads in certain live channels too and now they are showing ads in YouTube too

Just got Jio Fiber backup plan last week
Their Router range is very bad and everything is locked down.
STB software is very poor to watch live tv
Opening Zee/SunTV/Star channels open in their respective apps and it takes couple of seconds with ad playing before starting.
Star channels are not same stream compared to live tv.
Even opening free channel live TV9, 20sec unskippable ad is shown
On STB startup there are ads
Can't install smart tube or any other app on stb, even if I uninstall jio default apps it reinstalls again
Hope ads will be removed after recovering Rs5100cr marriage expenses so wait😄
Jio Fiber started inserting Ads in Jio STB 1.5 yrs back.. it started with occasional ads, but the situation now - you get ads while switching between live channels, you get ads while watching live channel, you get ads while opening OTT App, you get ads during OTT shows, you get Jio inserted ads in youtube and you get ads on startup of STB.
There is no escape from ads in Jio STB and the number and duration of these ads have increased so much now.. they show 5 ads in a row totalling 4 mins sometimes !! And these ads are in addition of the channel/OTT ads .. they don't even allow to skip the ads.. such a horrible experience it has become now to watch anything on Jio STB.
When they are charging customers for live channel and OTT, it is totally unethical on their part to insert their own ads. TRAI as usual is sleeping untill there are multiple complaints.
Never ever take Jio Fiber STB.. Keep your DTH.. for a monthly outgo of 200-300 you get a fast channel swithcing experience with no DTH inserted ads.
