Comment on Netflix mulls introducing free ad-supported tier. The circle is complete
HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 3 months agoYeah. Netflix got really lucky with streaming for as long as they did and they knew it. Cable and broadcast subsidized their content and they were able to lease it for pennies on the dollar.
Of course, people don’t want to admit that the subsidy for their content is gone and they are pissed about rising costs.

I don’t care about the why. It was worth it.
Now it’s not worth it.

Then cancel and move on.
The way that people talk about it here, a streaming service raising rates is the equivalent of a significant other dumping them.

People are allowed to recognize a dogshit excuse for a product is a bad product.

I never said people weren’t allowed, but there is this weird obsession about it on Lemmy.
