    It’s just one thing I’m gonna say about this. You get all of the crappy things from cable but you don’t have an option to buy things physically and when you buy things digitally, they can get revoked just ripped out of your hands so welcome to this shitty age she did thencable age because at least if you didn’t like that, you could get physical media that someone couldn’t rip out of your hands

    • @michaezell4607
      @michaezell4607 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Blame the lack of physical media on the simple fact that newer technology rendered it obsolete.
      The vcr and DVD player went bye bye from the retail market long before the streaming fad came into existence. The VCR and DVD player technology was rendered obsolete when the DVR technology was invented and perfected.
      You simply no longer needed a VCR to record programming when the DVR has that capability.

    (kinda offtopic, but regarding cable as a all-inclusive package for internet and telephone on top)
    Cable the only opponent in Germany, through which the current fiber expansion in Germany, gets violently stopped in many road up to regions...
    Long time contracts for areas or with companies renting out apartments KILL the progress of better internet in Germany...
    Since cable often gets advertised far beyond its actual bandwidth for those areas, it is even difficult with legal matters to force through the expansion...
    (advertised for up to 1~2Gbit even tho it crashes far below 500Mbit at prime time usage in the city)
    Regarding actual streaming/TV, I don´t watch TV and my only current service is Amazon Prime, which I get 50% discounted, no extra packages on top.
    The amount of ads is still VERY reasonable, compared to TH-cam without adblocker and I only have the service for actual ordering and the 1x Prime sub.

    As usual, it's all about the money and making people dependent on a product and raise the prices afterwards including the reduction of content. As long as there is competition and products that are owned by one of the competitors and the other product by another, this will always result in the same crap.
    We don't had/have the different cable providers in Germany as you had/have in the united states, but the streaming environment is completely out of control. after signing up for multiple services over the years, we are now back to max 3 services (amazon, netflix and a German company). Less is somethings more, especially with the free services owned by Germany itself AND physical media.

      I've been forced to boycott Big Media for decades - when I was younger I was unable to afford cable, then when it was finally able to afford it, everything jumped ship to separate, ever-more-expensive streaming services that require losing control over your computer to use them (DRM). And with the plenty of people in Big Media outed as predators, bigots, or just dangerous people, now I actually loathe what the suits sell us as "entertainment" nowadays. Heck I barely followed the Olympics, things are that bad in the ethical sense.
