Honestly, who'll notice an extra $10 on most on-ways?... YYC- LAX $129 with no food and no AVOD, or $139 for full food service and AVOD. The choice to me is clear.
I'm pretty sure that when they introduced BOB they actually told pax they would cut fare prices, although I'm sure it never happened.

When they say 5 dollars for AVOD, will that be per movie, or for the whole flight?
