Comment on Like clockwork, Peacock is raising subscription prices again
wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 2 days agoI don’t mind paying for a solid rotation of content to watch, I don’t have to own everything. People were mostly happy with blockbuster’s business model.
The streaming industry is a heaping pile of shit right now though, and everyone is trying to dial us back to the worst of cable again.

People only liked Blockbusters business model because there were no other options. Redbox came on the scene and decimated the company and they were even sued to get the distribution model changed so that they had to wait a month before they could rent new movies out. Now both companies are relics of the past since streaming became mainstream.

I guess that’s fair, and I had forgot going to a friends to watch their rentals together.
At least I definitely did not rip rented dvds to my hard drive.
