    I'm on my second streaming service, which as it happens, is Netflix. Once I can't find stuff I want to watch, I'll be gone. Yet they don't exactly make it easy for me to find programs, because they persist in suggesting things I've already watched, and which I'm sure they know that I've already watched. I find it hard to believe that that strategy makes any kind of commercial sense. A few people with dementia might be willing to watch the same things over and over, but surely most viewers will realise, with annoyance, that the've seen something before, and immediately bail on it.

    One person watches live TV in our house, and they are an elder. If I had a choice, I would dump satellite TV in a heartbeat. All the networks are charging WAY to much for there content (oh wait, not content, more commercials than content). Right now, I'm considering streaming, and may lean that way soon.
    Dish, DirectTV, and cable, are dinosaurs and will eventually go out of business with there ever increasing prices. No way should TV be $150+, when half of the stuff (on every channel) is nothing but advertisements.

      Instead of paying for services A, B, and C every month for a year, you do something different.
      You pay for service A for three months, cancel for a few months, and then pay for another three months.
      In an average month, you may be paying for service A and C or B and C but almost never pay for all three services in the same month.

    In Britain in the 1950’s 60’s, cinemas were tied to a particular chain with its own films. The govt had to step in to break these monopolies, meaning cinemas eventually were able to become multiplexes, running multiple films on multiple screens. Streaming your own stuff inevitably means you run out of product after people have watched the films they wanted to watch.
    Also because material goes in and off streaming, it means favourite films aren’t guaranteed to stay on the platform you’ve subscribed to.
    Much better to have your favourite productions on your own media ( Blu rays DVD, digital files etc).
    Also many streamers now cut material out of films to attract a wider audience so they can go get a more general classification. Streaming serves the masses but the days of signing up to multiple sites so you can watch a few favourite films to find they have been censored is not the way I wish to view this material.
    And now we have ads as well, !!!

    Used to be if you wanted to watch a movie from Paramount Studios, you HAD to go to a Paramount movie theater. Congress put a stop to that in 1950, to the great benefit of moviegoers.
    I think we need that same solution for streaming. Congress should divest Content Owners from Content Distributors. You can be one or the other, but not both. Netflix Films would be legally, administratively and financially separated from the Netflix Streaming service.
    Thus, Stranger Things would have to be available to ANY streaming service that wanted it, and all comers would pay the same price to get it.

    Most streaming services have no business being in this market. They were all making huge amounts of money licensing content. CBS-Viacom (Paramount) licensed The CW content to Netflix for over a billion dollars, even after it had aired the entire season. When they pulled that content (or just quit making it...also pretty stupid) from Netflix, they had content sitting on a server making zero money. That's not the kind of content that drives subscriber growth. There is one reason they all had to get into streaming...Corporate Greed. A bunch of Wall St types that don't understand the business jumped in head first and are now losing money hand over fist and investor's patience has run out. They have already started licensing content again, but now do it from a position of weakness since they are losing so much money (their own fault too). Netflix is again the big winner here. It isn't going anywhere.

    Bad title. 👎 Streaming isn't dying. Just some companies going under. Streaming is here to stay.

      Just because its too slow to be overtly noticeable doesnt mean its not happening. Look how long it took cable to finally be axed. Some people still even have that....

      Then you didn't read it or watch it. Folks are sick of the high prices and ads and b.s.

      streaming is good to a point you dont really own the movies and they can pull any film at any time thats the draw back they don want any one to own dvds or records , they need to be making money off of you and me , as for me i have so many dvds and i would never rent , and with adds on here i dont mind that one bit thats ok , but again if you pay for streaming and save movies online that you payed for they have all rights to pull the film its more like this ........Disney let everyone watch there movies and they pull there films and put them in a vault so you cant watch them for years , but the freedom of owning dvds is great and you can watch them and theres ex stuff on the dvds that streaming does not have , and many are finding out that movies that they own are being pulled........many are upset and didnt take that root as many others have done and sold there dvds , again stream is not for serious movie watchers from the past that did grow up watching movies , and there are others who love the renting deal but dont like to own movies that take up space .........if you love streaming thats great if you love buying new or older dvds thats great too , but i see it as far as stream going back wards ..........to the days of HBO and SHOWTIME or MAX if you miss it not telling when it will come on again , i am not fighting or any thing like that just letting you know the movie library of streaming movies may get smaller as time goes buy and dvds will be around for along time like a classic car , stay safe and take care .........streaming or dvds is what many like rent or buy and own its up to you happy movie watching

    I dumped everything but Prime and I only keep that because of the free shipping. I am just beefing up my home disc collection.
