Yeah, this is getting ridiculous. No tonly am I sick of needing multiple subscriptions to watch everything, but I hate needing to use some television networks shitty website to watch something when a real tech company built a fantastically managed platform for this.

Oh yeah. I’m sure they won’t each cost $8.95/month with required commitments and early termination penalties. No industry would ever do that.

So stealing.

On the one hand, I will be sad my kids cannot watch Phineas and Ferb. On the other, I will be very, very happy that they cannot watch Bunk’d and all of the other stupid bullshit on the Disney channel.

Yes, but if everyone has their own service then people will make choices and only support some of the services. Hopefully these companies will have to make a decision to move back or places like Netflix and Hulu. I’m not paying for HBO, Showtime, Disney, ESPN, etc. I am pretty sure others will feel the same.

It’s going to cause regular people who would willingly pay a fair price for content to start pirating. People aren’t going to be able to or be willing to pay fifteen to thirty bucks a month to each separate content company.

We weren’t clear enough that we didn’t want each channel to require it’s own box...

“Looks like I have to buy The White Album again.”

Many people have asked to be able to buy cable channels “a la carte” so they only pay for what they want. I think the world is going to give them what they asked for, and they are going to regret they ever asked.

I’m a video prepper. If I really like a movie, I’ll just buy the Blu-Ray. There’s no way of knowing that it’ll be available indefinitely in a physical form, but streaming is definitely unreliable.

The time has come to liquidate our guests....

Disney is really the only company I could see getting away with this. I personally wouldn’t pay for it, but I could easily see parents willing to spend a decent amount to get not just current and new stuff, but access to the goldmine of classic cartoons. My family used to just rotate Looney Tunes and old

I don’t think all this fragmenting of streaming services is going to turn into the gold mine that these corporations obviously think it will. You need more content than most can provide on their own to make it worth the time and money for consumers to subscribe, or else you need more incentives to subscribe than just

Exactly someone ask Les Moonves how much traffic his streaming service is drumming up with only Star Trek as the headline. Spoilers: It’s not much!

I can’t argue with any of these points, although some of them wouldn’t bother me as much if the alternative story had been better. And the lack of exposition or backstory to explain even basic things about who the characters were and why they were doing what they were doing was annoying.

Sort of fine with this. MCU has way too many things going on already.

Can’t see his feet, so they are staying true to the leifeld program.

Nope. Never. To Fox’s credit, I think they have done a good job with the property.
