    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for selectively suppressing advertisements and providing supplementary media content in place of the advertisements. A program (including program segments and supplementary media content) and advertisements are transmitted to a user device on two different channels. A database may be queried to determine whether the advertisement suppression feature is enabled for a particular user. For example, the user of the user device may subscribe to an advertisement suppression service and an enabled status may be stored in the database. If the status is enabled, the program segments and supplementary media content are provided to the user device without advertisements. If the status is disabled, the program segments and advertisements are provided to the user device without the supplementary media content.
