Tubi TV chose the ad supported business model instead of following the footsteps of Netflix and Hulu and adopting a subscription model. Massoudi backs his decision, saying it is
clear consumers aren’t willing to subscribe to yet another subscription service. He adds that most subscription-model streaming services won’t have scale or profitable businesses.
Consumers want more TV, but don’t want to pay more for it.
