Completely agree, and I have watched a ton. The quantity of ads is outrageous, and the "ongoing coverage" streams make you watch a pile of ads before you even find out what's playing.

The video was always stuttering and just shy of unwatchable on the "live" streams, the ads were out of hand, commentary audio was super inconsistent, even the camera work was pretty shit overall. Like, missing critical moments when that was the only thing going on.

I thought NBC / Peacock did a pretty bad job.
