    1. Been telling people for years. Go grey market and get an IPTV. Fuck these companies. I was fine with a couple subs and direct TV or cable but not when I can’t watch an show without giving another $10 a month

    2. They would never go back to cable, they’d have to split the money and all make less. They fucking love this new shit.

      Pretty much. Regurgitating the same business model, but swearing they’ve ‘got it right this time’. Now with extra AI Slop. Because it’s what plants crave.

      We’re about to have Being Black+ and Blackly app, where you have to subscribe monthly to continue being black. I pay the extra money for the Ad-free Being Black life experience. Finna cancel though if they raise prices again 😤😤😤

      Honestly once this trump bullshit is over.

      I would love to have a national fiber optic internet service that comes from the federal or state level depending on the situation. It can create jobs and bring modern high speed internet everywhere in the US and it fucks with monopolies or duopolies across the country.

      Tired of all this dick measuring competition that ends up being overpriced bullshit for consumers.

      It should be a public utility. We def have the money to make it possible. The corrupt have shown us we got enough and more. They just don’t want to use it for the commoners and would rather let the country die in debt.

    6. Gonna be called “CableMax” or “CableGo”. Whichever HBO isn’t currently using.

    7. Do I need a special box I pay extra for every month and am locked into a 2 year contract? Do I need a service guy to come to my house at a random time to install it?

    8. Context: Netflix just bought Warner Bros for $80 Billion.

      Harry Potter, Batman, Superman, Barbie, LOTR, and literally all of **HBO Max** etc. will all belong to Netflix in Q3 2026.

    9. Larry sounding a little like the Boomers from about a decade ago, when they acted like millennials were mostly still in grade school. In reality the elder ones were in their early 30s and the youngest ones were around college grad age. Gen Z knows what cable is

    10. It’ll be called “cord knitting” and it will be a great relief to have hundreds of hours of content they don’t want to watch in one place, and pay one fee to one company, instead of having to click to multiple platforms, scroll through multiple menus of stuff, and pay multiple subscriptions every month.

      All this Netflix deal tells me is that their prices are going WAY up. They already went up every other year and they are about to burst the bubble on how much people are wiling to pay.

      Awesome! I love being able to choose to watch what I want when I want and pause it whenever.

      I dont even know the last time I watched TV. Sports on a bar TV before a concert I think. 

      Books are more interesting to me.

      They already have its called piracy.

      Piracy won out over the streaming wars due to its effective “you wouldn’t steal a. . .” advertising campaign in the 90s. The ad became a meme over time and experts say this allowed piracy to take the hold of the market.

      Plus streaming got too expensive and the quality is shite.

      Why are you guys acting like we don’t know what that is 🥴 streaming only became mainstream in 2016, you’re thinking of Gen Alpha.
