The streaming wars: Everyone is the loser

in movies •  5 years ago 

Eventually, a program will come along that plays all streaming services in one convenient "box". People will buy this to combine all their different brainwashing subscriptions. Soon, the company gets greedy and starts adding in advertising over all streaming services but people had already gotten used to the convenient service so they let it slide. Pretty soon, people are paying hundreds of dollars a month for their shows and it mostly consists of ads. It will end up being the same as traditional cable with more tailored ads and not having to set your calendar for specific shows. Just look at how many ads YouTube shoves down your throat now if your not using Brave Browser. It wasn't always like that.

If people want to consume mindless content let it be their choice to abuse their bodies, it's just another vice no different from cigarettes, gambling or alcohol. I have no doubt advertising is coming, it always does with these kinds of business models. Make something cool, get people to use it, place ads in front of them

I agree the number of ads on YouTube is ridiculous, they really pushing people to want that premium subscription

For sure it's anyone's own choice to do/watch what they want. It's just hard to watch (see what I did there) when I can see it coming and the consumer doesn't realize.
