Streaming services content war is taking shape

They’ll tell you how expensive gas and cable is then gouge you with high electric and streaming bills while investors get rich. Can see if from a million miles away.

That’s why you build a 6k square foot house so she can’t find it.

LOL im talking about his basement tho. his garage well one of his garages is a weight room and half quart and if i remember right the ceiling in there is 20' id have to ask but he was talkin smack on my 15' garage ceiling so im pretty sure it was 20 he has lived a bit cheap when he was building his practice and during his divorce but now that his alimony is all up hes finally splurging so hes a bit overcompensating in my opinion lol

Amazon recently announced that’s it’s deal to buy the MGM library of movies and TV shows for over 8B is now official. That means movie series like Rocky and James Bond will go to Amazon Prime. This move is to directly compete with Disney which recently purchased the Lucas Films and Marvel Studios. It’s also trying to compete with ATT which last year announced a merger with Warner Media and Discovery. That deal encompasses such channels as HBO, CNN and HGTV. That deal was approved last month by the US government. We will have to wait and see if the Amazon deal gets approved but it’s been approved in Europe.

IMO this will mean increased costs for consumers going forward bc all these libraries are now “locked up” in the hands of only a few companies. I’ve only recently started streaming stuff. I’m still using satelitte TV but that is probably going away on the residential side bc of the costs to run it. (Satellite TV will still be the only option commercially bc all the bars/taverns can’t get enough bandwidth to service all those TVs).

Which streaming services do you guys use and why?

hulu live
prime
paramount
netflix
hbo max
disney

i rotated the bottom 4 where only two are active at a time. Let the other two soak for a few months, three months, then rotate those two in with current 2.

i had to cut back this month due to tornados in the area. gonna have to pour in a truckload of water and blankets to East Texas tomorrow.

THIS!

sports is the primary reason to have satelitte tv. Plus you can set up an account with an east coast address and utilize the dish anywhere. That means you get prime time shows three hours early and you can have one account that services multiple locations.

i agree that cable is garbage.

I’ve got Hulu live and there hasn’t been a sporting event I wanted to watch that I couldn’t. Haven’t had cable in 4 years.
 
My wife has Prime, and we pay for Netflix, but not sure for how much longer. I think we have the basic Hulu as well. I steal everything else.

I do pretty much exactly what you outlined.

I’ll say this I got Apple TV free and other than Ted Lasso it’s not worth having. Right now what I watch the least is Netflix but I’m not paying for it either.
