Putting ads in paid services is just one annoyance.
Things piracy offers viewers:
Subtitles in several languages.
Original, not dubbed versions (Amazon is particularly bad for this)
Watch on any device. Why is it any business of a stream provider whether I have a USB cable capable of video output attached to my mobile device? This is a decades-old annoyance now. It used to be that you couldn’t watch certain shows unless you had Apple devices, and good bloody luck using Linux to stream.
