    In other words - Bubsy the Bobcat went home to "Grand-Grandfather".

    I totally agree with Ian on the streaming discussion. Back in the day, I bought seasons of shows that interested me and I was commited to watch them. Nowadays I watch no tv shows at all, because there is just to much content that has no value to me, because its all in the monthly subscription and I don't feel any kind of commitment anymore.

    Regarding the streaming discussion, one advantage I think streaming has compared to cable is that the episodes could be as long or short as need be. If the show were to shift to cable, production would be more constrained by how they could format their episodes. The other advantage is that it gives production more flexibility with season length compared to cable which probably requires ~20 episodes/season.

    The PS5 sales are actually outpacing the PS4's during the same period (2 1/2 yrs). There was an article released by Game Rant just last month about it, so it's too early to suggest it won't be as successful if not more so than the PS4.

    15 years ago, I hated having to pay for cable and get hundreds of channels I don't care about. Nowadays, I can pay for just Netflix and one floater streaming service. I'll have it for a few months, catch up on the interesting shows on that service, then move to the next one later. Unless you feel like it's necessary to watch every show when it's new, I think this is still way better. I pay like $30 where cable cost way more for a decent package.

    I wouldn't over react over Sony's new streaming device, Sony has a whole history of weird tech that is so niche it gets forgotten as it's launch.... and it's neat! "Oh wow, this TV, you can have two people play on different perspective." or "Oh wow, Mini discs" and even now going back to the PS3.... it has an awesome CD audio visualizer. OH SURE, NO ONE USES IT 15 YEARS LATER, but it's neat playing Weird Al greatest hits, and then it just zooms by.

    I know that this is a a few months old but I just wanted to give my take on your point about streaming services. I dont think it would ever be possible for them to go back to any type of pre-streaming model, you can't unring that bell. Imo one of the biggest problems streaming services have is underestimating their biggest competitors which are, free platforms that are primarily ad driven. Quibi tried to address that but they failed because they applied old Hollywood ideas to a newer medium and it was a miss. I think the kind of sad reality is that people in my generation and the next have accepted much lower grade content, as long as it's free and constant. I think if Netflix disappeared tomorrow, most people under 30 would just lean into tiktok and youtube.

    I think all these content generation companies like Disney, Warner, etc screwed up by trying to compete directly with Netflix and destroyed their business model when what they should have done is just jacked up the rates they charge streaming services for premium content.
    Also we're overdue for a new physical media for TV shows. I think there would be a market for a whole season of a show on something the size of a switch cartridge.
