If you want to do something that is completely legal, rip a movie or TV show from a DVD, and you basically have a free way to watch a movie completely off-line.
Remember when television wasn't isolated for media companies craving the need for their own streaming services and the television networks were MUCH more relevant than they are now? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Some companies are more tolerant of DVD than others. For example, the 20th cartoons stopped their releases right after Disney bought them out, and now any remaining releases are being outsourced to Sony.
3:32 YES! This sentence makes the most sense. I also believe that if a company owned the rights to a movie/TV show, they should put it on their respective service.
See, Artie, this is why I subscribe to you! You have smarts, and know that Linear TV is being overlooked by streaming! I just wish these big media companies can see this video and reflect on their stupid decisions!
Good point about how streaming is trying to siphon from every other format by how much linear TV and physical media have suffered blows. I think the most important thing about those forms is the charm, how you can watch it offline forever, how premieres are live events rather than late-night dumps.
From being a more convenient way to watch whatever you want wherever you want to being the equivalent of a real TV channel. Adverts, having to pay, having to go to different places just to find one show or movie. But thank the heavens for those free streaming services though.
If there gonna get rid of there original shows and movies, they could've at least give the rights back to their creators or companies who want to distribute them.
@@ABCEasyas-- I have a VCR , DVD player & a regular TV 😊 . So , I'm well prepared ! 🎉 My antenna works pretty well . Plus , I don't watch any streaming services anyways so...yeah .
When I make videos in the future. I plan on making some cartoons and movies. And I plan on making it into a streaming service with no ads or money. And I don’t plan on merging with other companies unless they are owned by a friend of mine.
Imo, piracy or supporting the creator/studio through an official is more respectful than watching the content from a streaming service. When you pay for a streaming service, you are not paying for the anime or show you want to watch, you are paying to take the wall down.
I mean at least there's free streaming services but even that is crazy the crazy thing is too is that these companies have pulled a lot of shows from syndication from over the air TV which is really upsetting and they're putting all their stuff for streaming on their own services. People would say as well as to just put antenna in the back of your TV and there you go you got free TV but you got to understand that most of the networks are not available everywhere for example here in my area we don't have a lot of channels more specifically sub channels.
With the amount of content purges happening in many of the streaming services espcially with Max and WBD because of the "man hated by hollywood" for example. I'd say it definitely isn't worth it afterwards.
Wish more channels cared about their schedules and the number of different shows that come on during a given week. I think streaming services will soon loose popularity and people will start watching actual TV again!
I get Disney has done pretty bad and greedy stuff over the years, but HOLY SHIT! I have never seen a company ever shutdown their entire channels the moment they launched their streaming service. That is beyond evil and unspeakable.
You also forgot to mention you can just watch over-the-air TV, just cable, but completely free. Just go to a store, buy a TV antenna, hook it to your TV, do a channel scan, and boom! Problem solved!
@@harrygardner7257 I mean if you're in the city or the broadcast towers of the stations, it should be fine, but a rural area, you might have some issues.
Sports is the reason I have subscriptions to prime, peacock and Apple TV is because my cable channel decided that certain nights my team would not be showing on my cable sports network rather it’s on prime, I pay for a sports package, that I already pay extra for. Sometimes games are on Apple TV or peacock. Football season is upon us I dread to see what games I’ll be missing out on because of being on a streamer that I don’t have. At least simulcast to the paying once customer. I hate this double dipping. It was when ball games were taken off regular tv and put on something called cable, where you needed a box on top of your set to get this now special programming. Deja vu all over again.
This is great! You should do one on something I’ve hated for a long time… The console editions of Minecraft bedrock. I paid ~30 USD for a game that still has micro transactions? Not to mention I hate the feel of all the menus, slow, unresponsive and generally inferior when compared to legacy edition, and much, much more.
Even then, on ps4, you still get bedrock for free with legacy edition. You can play less to get more game! And on PS5, you even get the upgraded ps5 version for free. Granted it’s bedrock, so why bother, but it’s there
This why i privacy watch TV shows or movie and anime because to many streams service to just watch different show on one stream service then stream service don't have TV show you look go to other stream service that's what frustrating alot about stream service that's why some people privacy TV show movies and anime
Thats why I just watch regular tv, or I get DVDs from the charity shop. Where I live you can pick them up second hand for really cheap (like 50p-£1) and you can find pretty much any movie/series you like cos people are always donating them to make way for streaming services, as the saying goes one man's trash is another treasure lol
Not every country has HBO Max. The UK doesn’t have it yet as HBO still has a partnership with Sky. If this contract expires I have a feeling that Sky Atlantic probably won’t last and it’s content would move to other Sky channels.
So much entertainment stuff has degraded in quality in recent times. At least Tubi is decent. The fact it's so hard to find Infinity Train now, been wanting to check it out for some time now. Greed poisons, for real. Disney isn't what it used to be, either.
Shows on demand, DVDs, and blu-ray is great! It's free, and you can watch them without buying or paying anything. Now they're slowly fading away thanks to streaming services
I also forgot to mention in the video that DVDs/CDs may not last forever because they will all rot away and no longer work. By 2100, every DVD/CD around as of 2024 will no longer work.
It still costs a lot less then what most cable companies charge and you don't have to wait for a specific time for something to be on. I don't think it's that bad.
Max is the worst streaming service for treating Looney Tunes and Cartoon Network shows like shit because first off I hate Warner Bros Discovery merge with a burning passion second ever since last year the Looney Tunes shorts from 1950s-onward were deleted over a year ago third they have gotten rid of Cartoon Network shows like Dexter’s Laboratory Foster’s home for imaginary friends and the misadventures of FlapJack fourth the Looney Tunes shorts that are still on the Boomerang app are going to be gone because of the Boomerang app shutting down by the end of this month and will be merging to Max I have so many reasons why I hate Max and Warner Bros Discovery that means if i want to see the Looney Tunes shorts from 1950s - onward i will have to pay a fortune for Looney Tunes Platinum collection blu rays physical media still needs to exist for many reasons plus i will be getting Dexter’s Laboratory the complete series dvd sometime but the only reason i still want max is so I can watch the remastered Tom and Jerry shorts from the cancelled Tom and Jerry Golden Collection volume 2 blu ray until they release those shorts on Blu Ray in the near future

Now most channels are rerun farms of newer shows
Finally, someone has a good video about streaming services having their flaws. Hence why I don't go to streaming services such as Netflix.
I remember when HBO Max used to show ads on the ad plan, once every 5 episodes. Now its Every. Single. Episode. (even more for some others)
That must drive you nuts
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews it is! I just wanna binge Chernobyl without having 13000 ads per episode 😀
7:29 Paramount has actually released STREAMING CONTENT on physical media, so I highly doubt they’ll ever stop.
Wait for real?
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews Rugrats 2021 DVDs exist, and the Beavis and Butt-Head P+ reboot as well.
There's also a 4K steelbook of the Knuckles show on Paramount Plus coming out this year. It's also coming out on Blu Ray and DVD
Some companies are more tolerant of DVD than others. For example, the 20th cartoons stopped their releases right after Disney bought them out, and now any remaining releases are being outsourced to Sony.
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews Update: They’re about to do it again with S2 of Rugrats 2021
3:32 YES! This sentence makes the most sense. I also believe that if a company owned the rights to a movie/TV show, they should put it on their respective service.
Streaming is too expensive and you barely get to watch what you want to watch
I still don’t know Why Max removes content. How does that benefit anyone?
Yeah, not very much anymore these days, at least, bro! It's so sad!
I had been saying the latter thing before to my mom but she never entirely got it.
@@CubeytheawesomeOr themselves.
In these times it really is getting like that with even more shadier characters to be worried about.

I agree. Another reason why we can't have nice things . Anybody agree ?
Good point about how streaming is trying to siphon from every other format by how much linear TV and physical media have suffered blows. I think the most important thing about those forms is the charm, how you can watch it offline forever, how premieres are live events rather than late-night dumps.
I hate how names for things are getting shorter. I'm sure Max is just going to rebrand into M at some point
It absolutely better not! We need Close Enough!
They should change Max's name to "Min", because there's practically nothing good to watch there anymore.
Cable video-on-demand was way earlier than 2000. At least 10 years earlier.

Not at all that surprising since these days we're heading there.

It depends on where you live

Like seriously Max Is 9.99 a month when there are ads 16.99 ad free and 20.99 ultimate
Not to mention of max removing some Cartoon Network shows even effing otgw is going to be removed
RIP Infinity Train
Hey Artie, have you heard a recent news that Chick-fil-A of all things is doing their own streaming service?
That's an odd idea, to be honest.
Streaming services are expensive now
I’m also surprised at how long it took from Netflix and Hulu’s initial rise to the studios opening their own streamers.
Disney Plus specifically I have a few pointers about. Why are we getting so little proper Disney and so much random crap these days?
6:34 this includes FX Asia, and FXM Latin America.
If only Disney hadn't shut them down (same for a bunch of other international Fox/Disney channels).
I am launching my own streaming service! December 21, 2024 is the launch date. It may be delayed because of locations, but hopes up on that date!
Max could’ve named themselves Warner bros MAX
Paramount Plus apparently pulled several shows like Teenage Robot from its lineup as of late Thursday...
They even removed Doug, I see they are taking notes from HBO Max...
I do think the best way to watch a movie is still either owning it or renting it from a library though.
Hulu used to have a free version with ads and a paid version without ads. Now both require payment so what's the point?
I miss cable.
This why i privacy watch TV shows or movie and anime because to many streams service to just watch different show on one stream service then stream service don't have TV show you look go to other stream service that's what frustrating alot about stream service that's why some people privacy TV show movies and anime
So, I did the math & it’s roughly $167 a month. Hulu is bundled with Disney +, so I didn’t need to include it.
What is $167 a month?
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews the combined monthly cost for all of those streaming platforms
4:10 that looks more like a summer camp than outer space

fricking cec has a subscription service but it’s not for content it’s for deals at there stores
Which is fine
Crazy that you made a video of how Cable sucked 1 year ago, and now this. no hate btw
Thankfully im more of a physical media guy, but it sucks how streamings been these days. The streaming contest back in 2019 should have never happened
It seems like time, evolving mind and evolution of biology and human being makes us changing habits rapidly one thing at the time.
Piracy is allowed on where I live though...
This has to be his Best video ever

Unfortunately
I still call it HBO Max
6:06 - 6:14 i agree
True
I thought I was the only one that thought streaming sucks. I thought it sucked for years
i dont even like them i love doing DVDS much better so even if a streaming service takes one of my favorite shows off i have them on dvd
I also forgot to mention in the video that DVDs/CDs may not last forever because they will all rot away and no longer work. By 2100, every DVD/CD around as of 2024 will no longer work.
I can live perfectly with just cable and TH-cam
makes sense
Tubi is great though
I didn't say it was bad
Not all of that had parts on there that seemed incomplete and certain anime missing subs or having to actually set it.
AVGN probably thinks streaming services are bad, too, lol.
I mean cable tv is dead its like saying horses are the future in the 1900s yet....theres cars
One of the reasons I'm fond of physical media.
the streaming model is unsustainable and therefore will implode inevitably
It's a high probability!
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews it will implode inevitably and then it will suffer the same exact fate as cable.
It still costs a lot less then what most cable companies charge and you don't have to wait for a specific time for something to be on. I don't think it's that bad.
They could’ve just made even mo money by licensing shows to other services
