Sometimes that's a tactic, sometimes it's wild optimism, and sometimes they seem content to make a loss every year and prop it up with investment.

I don't know about stealing, they stopped taking money when I unsubbed, now I'm watching shit that somebody else paid to make, while not giving them a penny back!

I was worried for some time that piracy would wither in face of cheap streaming options. Luckily I was wrong, or at least the streaming companies didn't have the stamina to win this war. Arr! 🏴‍☠️
