Maybe those services could take a hint and create a unified platform where each partner gets a cut depending on % of their content watched.
You mean, like cable?
There's a very functional middle ground between all in one cable, and a hundred different services.
Yeah. We were there! Or close enough... It was a glorious week where everything lined up perfectly... Then we overshot and we are in this clusterfuck of nonsense.
"We" didn't do anything wrong. The people controlling the companies involved did. Don't include yourself with a group of bad people if you're not part of them.
