It is really sad that the new era is about many streaming services instead of a single one. Netflix was a godsend and an amazing service (still is btw), but now my shows are split between so many streaming services that I’ve started pirating movies again. The only service I’m paying for is youtube because these ads are annoying af otherwise. Imagine a single service where you can watch all movies. A bit like Apple music I guess (although they still lack a lot of foreign songs). Why can’t we do the same for movies? I predict that as internet speeds increase we will see pirating movies make a come back.
I presume it's partly because TV and film are much much more expensive to produce than music, and partly music is much more fungible than TV or film - there's way more of it and people are much happier to listen to random music than watch random films.
I mean if you've heard about Severance and want to watch it it's much more annoying that it's only on Apple TV than if one specific band isn't on Spotify. It's more noticeable and annoying.
I just pay for Prime and Netflix and pirate the rest.
