Dvd is not better. I hate it when I pay for the content and I'm still forced to see ads for something I purchased. You might own the media, but there are other downsides as well. They actually both suck!

You mean like a DVD movie has a trailer on it for the movie itself? Not sure what you're saying here.

DVDs sometimes had trailers for other movies on them. It was more frequent on VHS though.

This. Trailers are ads for other movies. Some DVDs had unskippable trailers.
