Get them to stop making their own damn streaming platforms, pick one or two and just live with those.
I want to see lower decks, but I'm not paying for yet another streaming platform to do so.
This is the literal only reason I haven’t tuned in. I’m not signing up and keeping track of yet another streaming service, especially one that’s only has one thing I want to watch. This show is the only one I’m actually missing right now.
I will say, I’ve been getting a lot more useful things done once I started cancelling streaming services that I hadn’t watched anything on in months.
The seven seas welcome ye matey
When I clear a few time-sensitive projects, a Jellyfin deep dive is probably in the works.
Yeah, that's the irritating thing about P+, they think they're worth the same as D+ a month with only one big franchise to their name. D+ brought together Disney, Marvel, Star Wars and Fox content before launching.
Lower Decks is amazing, and Strange New Worlds is also amazing. They did a crossover episode that was amazing.
I refuse to pay for Paramount on a consistent basis, and it's frustrating canceling and resubscribing anytime a new show comes out.
They can have as many platforms as they like, we don't want monopolies, duopolies or such, they just have to license out their works to others!
That's a fair point. The issue is cost, then. If all of the services were 90% cheaper, I think we'd be okay with that.
I tend to agree here. But it has been interesting watching the proliferation of streaming services and trying to figure out what's gonna happen next.
Like Netflix was a big first-mover, then everyone realized they could keep more money if they built their own streaming service, then everyone realized that building and running a streaming service is expensive and complicated, then everyone had to get onto the Original Content treadmill to try to keep folks subscribed which has led to somehow even more commodification of art, and now that running at a loss and pouring cash into original content to bump up numbers has gotten too expensive some services are pricing themselves out of the market.
I'm fascinated to see what the next big move is for these businesses. With more and more people starting to choose month to month which one or two services to subscribe to rather than keeping them all, I wonder if we're gonna continue seeing the return of ad-supported plans or some services only offering yearly contracts or what the next move will be in pursuit of endless growth.
They're going to instill contracts just like cable companies did. Wanna watch XYZ show? Just sign this 2 year contract for noname streaming service!
People switching from service to service will not be tolerated for long. They must always extract more and more profit for their shareholders.
