Those of you who pay attention may remember that this reporter's philosophy is that everything's made of shit & we're all dying. If you paid no attention above, these are the most pertinent statements:
The end of low interest rates is showing us what the tech companies really built over the past 15 years and it's nothing like what their PR hacks once promised. — Everything is more expensive, more invasive, and far less innovative or improved than they led us to believe.
So we've basically come full circle. Streaming is exactly like cable now. Probably just as, if not more expensive
Fuck you in the mouth w/ my fist, Bezos. I would advise every patriotic, anti-monopolistic American to carry an ice-pick & be ready to let the air out of the tires of any Amazon delivery vehicle that's impeding traffic or parking.At this point, not worth fighting the steaming services over their ads. They were always going to do ads. — Let 'em run ads. The MORE ads the better, I say. Because it may just wind up being just what the market needed to spike demand for Blu-ray discs of everything once again.
