Free ad-supported TV
Free ad-supported TV (FAST) refers to streaming services that offer a wide range of TV shows, movies, and other content without requiring a subscription fee. Instead, revenue is generated through advertisements shown during programming, similar to traditional TV commercials. These platforms provide convenient, on-demand access to popular content at no cost, making them a popular alternative to paid streaming services. Examples include Pluto TV and Tubi. Essentially, viewers can enjoy entertainment for free while advertisers reach audiences through targeted commercials integrated into the viewing experience.
