Evidently screwing customers twice by making them watch ads for the same price they used to get ad-free has been profitable. Let the enshitification continue!

Well as long as people watch the ads and pay for the service, why would they stop

Exactly. The masses are huge pushovers, and the corporations have figured that out. Things will continue getting worse indefinitely. They literally must continue getting worse for companies to continue increasing their revenue in a saturated market. There's total dominance now, so they can't grow by gaining more customers. They must grow by offering less for more money.
