    Maybe they can consider redesigning their monetization strategy, and figuring out the endless licensing issues, so people actually have something to watch, for the money they spend. It’s either that, or piracy

      After Netflix started offering streaming, I stopped considering piracy as a worthwhile option. Now, it’s actually easier to pirate whatever the fuck you want to watch than figure out what streaming service it’s on, and which of your friends has the account you’re all sharing.

        If you frequently watch this kind of stuff, your options are to either shuffle subs between 8 different platforms, or just get what you want from alternate sources. It’s always a service issue

          Not even that for me; most of the random things I want to add to my “to watch” list aren’t even on a streaming service
