Right? Streaming services need to remember that they’re competing against piracy. For several years, I would say they were winning. Then they started to pull their IP back to their own platforms and Balkanize into what amounts to a cable package 2.0
I’m more than happy to pay for my content so that the creators and staff get paid for their work, but there’s only so much BS I’m willing to put up with before I dust off the old torrent client and try to remember how to sail the high seas. Pulling content like this is one such form of BS.
I’m still waiting for it all to come full circle and have some company offer a bundle deal for a bunch of different streaming platforms that aren’t already under the same roof. Amazon Prime is closest to that model already since you can add other streamers individually for additional fees.
Yo ho yo ho…

Yeah, shit like this is why I hate streaming.
On the bright side, the news about Prodigy being pulled is why I started watching it today. Seems pretty fun so far!
