Sling TV Introduces Pause Ads to Live and On-Demand Content

The ads will appear 10 seconds after a viewer presses pause and will be minimally intrusive.
Streaming services are continuing to leave no stone unturned when it comes to generating as many advertising placements as possible on their platforms.
