I'm wondering if this is going to be the start of a lower cost tier, or perhaps raising the price to watch without ads? I don't think Apple could get away with normal ads on Apple TV without an option to get rid of them, even if it's a light touch.

I feel like it's inevitable now that all streaming services are going to add an ad-based tier. Initially it will just be a cheaper option and you'll still be able to pay for an ad-free experience, but I am concerned that eventually the ad-free option will go away. It probably depends on how much money the services can make from advertising per subscriber per month - but it seems plausible that ads could be worth more per subscription to the streaming services than the $10ish dollars a month most of them charge.
