This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
streaming has absolutely no future. if they keep pulling shit like this it's going to decline even faster. i suppose it's more about sucking off advertisers than it is pleasing customers, too....if you're going to fail anyway why can't you at least make a positive difference in the world?
Are their profits going down?
It will be like the Netflix exodus, the reddit exodus, etc. They'll make more money. The best you can do is be true to yourself and not participate if you don't want to.
Sadly, this. Average consumer, and I don’t mean it as an insult, will not look for an alternative to streaming. All these giant streaming companies are gauging how far they can go to increase the profit margins.
I'm a technically savvy average consumer. I've just been accepting the enshitification. It feels like every month a different company is raising prices.
I'm about ready to put on an eye patch and fly the Jolly Roger at this point.
