LOL.

We pay for 4K, but we don’t get more than 720p unless we use some proprietary shit hardware and agree to their super-invasive “privacy policy” - and they expect people to NOT set sail in the high seas? GTFO…

    Paying up to 23$ a month (not including other streaming services) to watch maybe 5% of the shows and movies I’m interested in just didn’t seem like a good deal after a while.

        LOL if it wasn’t on the official website I’d have assumed it was a joke.

        Would you:

        1. Subscribe to Netflix for watching the first season
        2. Then subscribe to prime video and then subscribe again to a specific channel to watch season 2
        3. Cancel that useless extra subscription to the prime video optional paid channel to watch seasons 3-9
        4. Subscribe again to that channel to watch seasons 10-16
        5. Subscribe to Hulu to watch seasons 17-19
        6. Subscribe to the Roku channel to watch seasons 20-22
        7. Hope that they don’t alter the licensing deals during your view or you gonna subscribe to something else

        Or… Just click on “get all missing episodes” on sonarr?

        And for those that are able to keep to just one subscription, switching to another when they’ve finished watching whatever show it is that said service had, they aren’t safe either.

        One of the next steps that these corporations are going to take is to add fees for dropping their services, with year long contracts.

        They don’t want competition, so they will try to force you to stay.
