    They don’t want people sharing because it takes money out of the giant conglomerate pigs bank account. I am so sick of them having the upper hand. I hate corporate greed. If a family member can’t afford a pay subscription, we should be able to share our Subscription with a family member. Even Netflix pulled the same the same thing. No sharing. How on earth do they know when someone is sharing anyway?

      They get it when you sign up, log on, or open a free program, its been part of the internet software protocol since the 'open' internet got rolling in the late-1990s IIRC. It a simple match of your ISP to your password. Its used as a security feature, too; a lot of times if you try to log into your bank account from a different device than you normally use it'll stop you and march you through some serious authentication protocols.

    There is a difference between Disney/Hulu versus Netflix doing it. Here is the difference, Netflix won. Disney is bleeding money like a siphon. I won’t be surprised if more aren’t driven to cancel it. People haven’t been that happy with the companies entertainment choices of late.

    • @Goldstar_

      Netflix isn't doing as good as it once did. They treat the producers if it's animated shows like a used handkerchief, and Disney makes most. Of it's money from it's theme parks, so they'll be fine in the long run.
      Yeah, yeah, I know Fox Spews says that we're all supposed to hate Disney now because they have the gaul to embrace LGTBQ and ethnic diversity (treating everyone equally...EEEWW!!) /s
      Seriously, kill that far-right noise. Those of us who live in the real world aren't triggered by equality and just want to be entertained. Also, f*ck Fox News and f*ck Donald Trump.

      And if course by "their entertainment choices of late" you mean how they have the gall to acknowledge women, non- white and LGTBTQIA+ people in a positive or prominent light. That rhetoric is just white noise that sane people tune out. The majority of the people being told to hate Disney are right wing bigots who couldn't afford them in the first place, so those people are irrelevant. Disney will be here long after their noise has subsided.

    Just so people know tiktok is the Juggernaut in the room it already makes more ad revenue then UA-cam. UA-cam is trying to take that back from tiktok that's why they started the shorts. But there's many companies competing in this space which, twitch looks like it's about to be the victim of bag decisions and probably will close down. Its owned by Amazon a company called Kick which is owned by casinos and has big money backing has took its marketplace , they are paying content creators big money. But no one stays on top forever and especially with an election year you'll see a big decline probably in this platform unfortunately.

    I figured Hulu was having financial problems just like Disney and ESPN since they're all owned by the same people. The content just ain't very good. But yeah you always see them cracking down on password sharing when they are losing a lot of money. May work for a while but people are still going to be canceling over time because the content is not good and the content that's getting made now that will be out in 3 years is also terrible. Bob iger is the worst CEO ever in American history of any company. Like I have said many times the fry guy at McDonald's at any McDonald's any fry person could do a better job than Bob iger.

  • @crosslink1493

    That new national streaming service with the localized features sounds interesting. It seems like the local broadcasters see the end of cable TV and are planning ahead to move their programming over to the internet/streaming as a way to mitigate the loss in retransmission fees. I wonder how they are going to work out the finances between large and small market station support for the overall platform, as I'd think some major market areas could develop their own streaming service and keep all the ad revenue for themselves. Something like a streaming platform for the Los Angeles area, one for NYC area, one for Chicago, and similar for other markets.

  • @jaylaknight8628
    @jaylaknight8628 7 місяців тому

    It's kind of like if you bought a laptop computer put a password on it then they decided who you could share the password with and let use it even after you've already paid for it
    This will really negatively affect certain places like schools too no more free days where a teacher let's u watch a movie on Friday even if its educational Or like a children's hospital this might prevent them from using a subscription in multiple patient rooms even if it paid by the hospital since they are large facilities connected together does this that count as multiple households buildings sharing a password or if different parts of the hospital are using the same account but not the same Wi-Fi then do would a hospital or school have to pay for 16 different Netflix accounts for each different medical floor or department I don't think this is fair to consumers or businesses that may use streaming services this could really effect whether teachers are able to use streaming even for educational purposes or nursing home facilities or daycares
    I don't even think that they're trying to stop people from password sharing really because that can already be prevented by other features they have where you can only watch on one screen at a time so even people u share it with can't use it all the time unless they pay more it's it's just about them getting people to pay more these companies and streaming services feel as though they are entitled to your money which is kind of ridiculous since now even Amazon prime and Netflix are making you pay for ads so they feel entitled to your money while also making money off of you with ads which just doesn't make sense why do you want to restrict password sharing if that's another consumer watching the ads you're getting paid to show just seems like they want to milk consumers for as much as they can regardless of whether or not it's fair they're entitled to your money so therefore you have to pay for them to make money off of selling you ads and pay for them to not let you use the account the way you want

    This is 100% illegal. We should be allowed to do this password sharing should be allowed all over the entire world forever. We should never have to have password sharing crackdowns because there are people that don’t live with their family if they’re trying to force people to have us live with our families instead of living on our own we don’t have the kind of money to pay for those services, especially those they have low income. Those who add disabilities should never have to deal with us.
