That used to be true, but now Blu-rays and DVDs have almost no ads, at least from my experience it's just the distributor logo, the menu, maybe a 10-second anti-piracy warning, and then the movie starts. I guess all the ads moved to streaming.

Ah, apologies. I'll remove this.
They explained this on the website:
I am aware there are Firefox forks that have sane defaults with regards to this and other aspects. I prefer keep using Firefox itself, because maintaining a browser is an incredible difficult job and I don't trust small projects to be able to this, despite that my trust in Mozilla is pretty low these days.

It's easy - use MKVToolNix to extract the audio files from the movie in an .mka container (or .ac3, .dts, .thd, .dtshd), and just share those files.
