They also had access to absolutely everything and tv networks were actually putting in at least a little effort into making shows watchable. If you want access to all the networks you used to have access to you'd have to pay just as much as before except everything they put out now is trash.
Cable is shit and the biggest complaint people have aside from the commercials is having to pay for 50 garbage channels they will never watch just to get 3 they want. Most people don't want or need access to all the networks, and they can just cancel/pause subscriptions whenever they want.
TWENTY bucks???? Lol I don’t subscribe to any of this garbage but yeah fricking right!!!! lmao
Dude, cable had all media on it. All streaming services combined would be triple the cost of cable (basic cable is fricking free) and there’s still nothing to watch on any of these troony streaming things. Burn it all down, I fricking hate ~~*(pedophiles*~~)) so much it’s unreal.
>$60 for internet >$18 hulu >$14 disney >$20 netflix >$15 prime >$12 paramount >$7 apple
Oh great $146 for less content than boomers paid for, and there are still ads.
Disney is planning to get acquired by Apple. Before that can happen there is going to be lots of selling off. >Marvel and Lucas films are both dead, only good for merchandising at this. >Pixar is dead. >Disney animation is dead. Frozen was the last big animated Disney movie. >Disney itself isn't worth buying without 20th century Fox assets and ESPN.
Apple isn't interested in merchandising and amusement parks. They'll only ever purchase Disney for its copyright assets, much of which are now dead and unprofitable. 20th century Fox however still holds value in its old pre Disney catalogue. So do old Disney assets.
ESPN has exclusive rights for sporting events, which would be a huge deal for AppleTV+.
I can see Apple choosing to buy Disney's content catalogue and selling off dead or dying franchises. They could also avoid creating content entirely after the purchase and instead, licencing it all to other studios while retaining exclusive streaming rights. Same with merchandising, it'll all get licenced off.
Parks will definitely be sold off or spun off as a separate company during the trimming process before a deal can be made with Apple.
There's so many services and so many interesting shit spread over them. Someone should have a service that offers merging some components from multiple ones skipping the rest.

Yeah scrolling the streaming services is slightly stressful, I don't like it. It's nice when you find something just right but it doesn't happen often. Better to leave it up to chance sometimes.
>Yes but the advertisements are atrocious and too often
I think that's really what did cable in, too many commercials and the breaks became too long. If you want to watch a show on TV you're better off recording it and viewing it later so you can skip the ridiculous commercials. Still annoying in its own way though.
It used to not be as bad
I remember watching Blues Brothers with my dad on VH1 and it was a 4 hour time slot. It was so fricking bad, in 2014 we were begging for an alternative because of shit exactly like that. Too bad the enemy you know is better than the enemy you don’t.
Channel flipping is so much more comfy anyway.

Absolutely
Sartre talks about radical freedom and how too much choice makes us less free. Im talking to more people and noticing a lot of people have stopped watching TV shows or just watch old shows they’re familiar with.
And were not even getting into the complete and utter death of television as a cultural touchstone (ie MASH, Simpsons, Breaking Bad, GoT) shows that literally everyone watched and you can conversate with strangers about. Now with Hollywood imploding all we got left is sports

>Now with Hollywood imploding all we got left is sports
That's actively being ruined as well
last time I was visiting my parents I remember channel surfing and literally every channel was a commercial at the same time
I just turned it off and read a book instead
Current cable is 100% brain rot and I noticed the same thing while visiting family last year. I think they doubled commercial time compared to two decades ago.
I've been saying it for years now, streaming can only end in a return to the cable television business model.
What the industry should've done is worked out something with shitflix or some unified streaming platform to break their content into channels that play media like regular cable with the added option we currently have of picking something to watch immediately if we know what we're looking for. I think it would be the best of both worlds and the dilemma of endless scrolling would be solved for those who weren't searching for specific media.
>watch the same shows over and over >still use the streaming service instead of just pirating them one time
i did that back when netflix had a great library at $5/month. as they kept increasing the price and cutting their library, i decided to finally cancel and pirate the shit. i've saved like $1k and have access to more shit i want to watch.
id like to, but the amount of data it would take to download every season of like twenty shows would be huge. i guess itd have to be a long term project.
It's really not much, you just queue it up and run it overnight. Unless you are running on dialup it shouldn't be an issue (in which case you wouldn't be able to stream anyway).
>we're losing subs so surely the way to beat this is to INCREASE the price!!
but reality what they think is >listten people are fricking moronic and don't even remember they are subbed and paying for this shit so just up the price
hahaha holy shit, frick no. I'd sooner pay money just to stare at a wall. I'm going to use this as an IQ test, anyone who pays money for this shit is a moron.
Does anyone here still have a subscription to one of these, if you ever did?
Seriously fess up
I had to prise it out of my gf’s fricking hands but we share expenses and it galled me that trace amounts of my money was going towards nigflix
I just have hulu. they have enough shows i watch. i just pirate movies. i cant really pirate 10 seasons of a show without my isp absolutely noticing or going over my data plan.
alright. well ill probably just slowly start downloading my go to shows then. see if my isp freaks out about it. id ask about good sources but i dont need to be mocked for asking.

anon, search for web-dls, those are basically decrypted offline downlads. x265 encoded, preferably.
check the size of them, and aim for about that much. know that in all cases, a bluray rip is preferable, but ofc for many streaming shows those don't exist
still, if you can find a bluray rip, prefer it. as long as its at least as big as those web-dls, you'll get better quality.
I leech off others' accounts and only pay for HBO. I will eventually cut it and push others to do so as well as the prices increase so dramatically. If these gays think they can increase every streaming service in the middle of a recession they've got another thing coming. These corporations have had it way too good and I hope the strikes kill them.
~~*They*~~ take half your paycheck to pay for child castrations and wargames. And take all your data for God knows what. Why are we not seeing a cent for all the data these ~~*~~*swine*~~*~~ steal from illegal, treasonous, anti-Constitutional government bills? (Patriot act)
my dad can barely log on to his computer. I'd rather just pay for a subscription for him than spend months at minimum trying to teach him how to download things he wants to watch
Ha! Sad, but based. I sit my mom in front of cable and allow her a couple of subscriptions. She’s so fricking hairbrained when it comes to operating the magical computer box. I swear not a week goes by where I don’t have to unfrick something up. Boomers and the media want to point at millenials and zoomies as paying for all this shit but I’m willing to bet a huge portion of their subscriber base is boomers.
i literally don't know a single person under 55 who watches broadcast TV or has cable of any sort
i can't fricking wait for the death of sportsball
i can't fricking wait for the death of the large TV networks

Yeah because paying that for a few months to watch football is cheaper than a cable package that includes ESPN
sports are all getting moved to their own streaming services too so they can force you to pay 3 times the amount and give you every game when you just want to watch your teams games
>Everyone ditching Didnee+ en masse >Make the few remaining subscribers pay more for the same garbage everyone is ditching
It's incredible how poorly managed Disney is. This must be ~~*their*~~ revenge on Walt Disney for being anti-semitic.
Wait wait wait. So let me get this straight. Disney actually expects people to pay MORE for a service despite it being a failure with no big show to bring people in? Lol. lmao even.
They're just trying to squeeze the last bit of moron juice out of their loyal gotslip consumers. They know that eventually everyone will unsub, so they're going to milk the few remaining morons willing to pay their prices until they inevitably ditch the service too.
17.99? Damn that fricking sucks, I've always thought Max, Hulu, and Netlfix was all you need but that much money a month for me to watch some animes is moronic lmao, I'll just watch anime on am illegal streaming website i guess lul
What idiots. The only reason I have Disney+ is for my kid to watch but I'm not paying that much for it. It was already a ridiculous jump from $8 to the $11 it's at now.
based. who needs to pirate and deal with annoying downloads when you can just watch it instantly? I only use hbo for convenience and I don't pay for it. streaming sites even save your place so you don't have to worry about that now
don't pay for them in the first place so...no.
white men pirate their media, in this day and age if you pay for Disney you are a literal Black person regardless of skin colour
>people aren't watching our shit because the content we provide don't justify the price? Let's fricking raise it!
Based Bob Iger accelerating Disney's implosion from within. He was an inside man all along.
Wait, what can you even price increase for American Disney Plus?:
>American D+ >Disney, Marvel, Star Wars and Nat Geo content >Australian, European and Asian D+ >Disney, Marvel, Star Wars, Nat Geo, Fox, ABC and Hulu content
Why did the jannies delete this? I forgot how God-awful the jannies on Cinemaphile are, I've gotten too used to the Cinemaphile and /k/ jannies being based
LMAO imagine not fricking pirating everything in the divine year of 2023.
I've constantly seen Americans who struggle financially and have a bunch of maxed out credit cards that still actively have tons of subscriptions for streaming, how fricking braindead do you have to be, holy shit.
is there any sort of soulseek equivalent for tv and movies? i have never pirated Cinemaphile shit, i usually just find a shitty stream that is probably mining crypto while i'm on the site.
soulseek for music is so easy, you just boot it up, search what you want, there are a million downloads and you just pick one. what's Cinemaphile's equivalent?
Zoomers are spoiled. If I was lucky I got two VHS every two weeks. Pretty sure each movie was $5 but maybe that was the N64 games. Certainly has gotten affordable to binge watch since streaming.
Was going to post this right here but now I guess I don't have to. I'll just skip right to the part where I pour another glass of poverty box wine and die a little more inside like a good little deadbeat goy.
It had to be like that and it's their last shot, they lost more money on Disney+ that they ever made on Marvel and Star Wars combined. Let that sink in for a moment, all those capeshit and starshit movies that got shilled here, it's like they never happened. When shills made fun of DC for their horrible movies (not worse than marvel's btw), think this, WB got to keep whatever profits they made with them and the mouse can't say the same about Marvel. They announced half a billion in net losses just this quarter and shills were celebrating not losing even more, it's fricking over. A 30% price hike? There are more coming, be sure of that
Turns out licensing old stuff that people really want to watch or put in the background is far cheaper than trying to pay billions for the biggest tv shows and/or funding new stuff being made all the time that turns out to be garbage.
I trashed disney+ a few months back its all just little kid shows which are only getting worse these nigs are going to force me back to torrents and physical media.
these streaming services are worse than cable companies.
>these streaming services are worse than cable companies.
Boomers paid $100+ WITH commercials
They also had access to absolutely everything and tv networks were actually putting in at least a little effort into making shows watchable. If you want access to all the networks you used to have access to you'd have to pay just as much as before except everything they put out now is trash.

Pay per view.
stfu boomer, cable is trash. I rather just pay for one streaming service then get a trial and cancel when I want to watch something somewhere else
>then

you're moronic
the only people who think disney is going to be bought, by anyone, is disney executives, praying to be saved from their own incompetence.
Why don't they just merge them?
They intend to once NBC's share of Hulu expires.
I don’t even know what Hulu is.
it's the green guy from avengers
That is a big increase.
For you.
It's only 3 bucks you poor homosexual. Stop buying so many hamburgers.

The only thing corporations hate more than losing money is someone else making money. Most would rather burn than cooperate.

So itll be just as expensive as cable in 2 years, awesome.
Or you can just cancel and enjoy free services like PlutoTV and Tubi.
OH NO NO NO
They mostly lost indian subs.
Lmao 18$ a month for hulu is insane, especially since it went for 11 to 15$ last year.
That's how much I like my Frasier and X-files with no ads.

I've cancelled everything except spotify. That's probably gonna get the chop, too.

i guess thats true. is watching one episode the same amount of data as downloading one?
depends on the video encoding and quality your watching it in. probably pretty close.
alright. well ill probably just slowly start downloading my go to shows then. see if my isp freaks out about it. id ask about good sources but i dont need to be mocked for asking.

i will continue pirating all media
I leech off others' accounts and only pay for HBO. I will eventually cut it and push others to do so as well as the prices increase so dramatically. If these gays think they can increase every streaming service in the middle of a recession they've got another thing coming.

People who forgot to cancel Disney + are now reminded they still pay for it and will cancel. What a dumb move.
I got the trio bundle. They touch that I'll be sailing the seas on the same day.
Name ONE (1) show available on a streaming service that you can't easily pirate.
Probably one of those weird interactive shows that are mostly for kids that Netflix sporadically has.
Maybe I don't steal, because I don't want someone, to steal from me.

Shut up homosexual

That only happens if you have parents that weren't deadbeats.

This is just the beginning. This isn’t enough for them and they’re doing it to avoid a massive shitstorm.

maybe I’ll just jump in an Emma Roberts season

Imagine paying for any of this shit lmfao
What will the post merger price be?
test
yeahhhh probably just gonna keep on watching youtube videos.
Why did the jannies delete this? I forgot how God-awful the jannies on Cinemaphile are, I've gotten too used to the Cinemaphile and /k/ jannies being based
Maybe the anon deleted the post by himself for whatever reason?
If he did then he can correct me. I see jannies doing a lot of gay shit like this on Cinemaphile
LMAO imagine not fricking pirating everything in the divine year of 2023.
I've constantly seen Americans who struggle financially and have a bunch of maxed out credit cards that still actively have tons of subscriptions for streaming, how fricking braindead do you have to be, holy shit.
Some people have the souls of slaves
They literally are the perfect slaves, most of them are fat too, kek.
Frick you snoy. Microsoft will run this shit and you WILL cry
>mfw I have no streaming subscriptions and, instead, own physical copies of everything I enjoy so I can watch whenever I want.
is there any sort of soulseek equivalent for tv and movies? i have never pirated Cinemaphile shit, i usually just find a shitty stream that is probably mining crypto while i'm on the site.
soulseek for music is so easy, you just boot it up, search what you want, there are a million downloads and you just pick one. what's Cinemaphile's equivalent?
>i have never pirated Cinemaphile shit
Try uh looking online with a search engine dingus

What is worthwhile on these services anyway? I'm catching up on Star Wars shows on Disney+, but is there something I'm missing?
>What is worthwhile on these services anyway?
Nothing.
>I'm catching up on Star Wars shows on Disney+
Why?
>is there something I'm missing?
No.
>the only tv related subscription I have ever gotten was for a European porn studio
Good time
I wish I am still subscripted but the new stuff are not as good as their old stuff and I am trying to save some moeny
>a European porn studio
Legalporno?
Disney has increased the price of their service every single year since its inception with zero value add, most people are used to it.
Zoomers are spoiled. If I was lucky I got two VHS every two weeks. Pretty sure each movie was $5 but maybe that was the N64 games. Certainly has gotten affordable to binge watch since streaming.
I already canceled last year. Might get it for the Halloween movies though.
But Biden told me that the economy is BOOMING and that we have historicaly LOW inflation
Was going to post this right here but now I guess I don't have to. I'll just skip right to the part where I pour another glass of poverty box wine and die a little more inside like a good little deadbeat goy.
It had to be like that and it's their last shot, they lost more money on Disney+ that they ever made on Marvel and Star Wars combined. Let that sink in for a moment, all those capeshit and starshit movies that got shilled here, it's like they never happened. When shills made fun of DC for their horrible movies (not worse than marvel's btw), think this, WB got to keep whatever profits they made with them and the mouse can't say the same about Marvel. They announced half a billion in net losses just this quarter and shills were celebrating not losing even more, it's fricking over. A 30% price hike? There are more coming, be sure of that
I pay 5 for both D+ ad free and hulu with ads. Only price worth it. If they stop doing it this year I'm out
Disney is championing diversity and fighting fascism. They're the most important people in the world.
Frick Putin! Frick Trump!
Stop shouting
Why is Tubi thriving while everyone else is losing money?
Turns out licensing old stuff that people really want to watch or put in the background is far cheaper than trying to pay billions for the biggest tv shows and/or funding new stuff being made all the time that turns out to be garbage.
I trashed disney+ a few months back its all just little kid shows which are only getting worse these nigs are going to force me back to torrents and physical media.
Pay?
Probably gonna unsub anyway if Ahsoka is shit.
