You can, there’s a little thing called piracy. Subscription video can be ripped. It happens all the time.

You never really did, idiots. Cool! I got Batman on VHS! Cool! I got Batman on DVD! Cool! I got Batman on Blu-Ray! Cool! I got Batman on… If you buy the same exact thing just to watch it, you don’t own anything.

Are you aware how digital storage works? There were these things called MP3 players long before streaming. Hard drives. Digital discs. Magnetic tape…. It doesn’t have to take up a large amount of physical space…. Such a weird take.

I mean they took up room, collected dust and you never watched them after the first time. They literally just pile up until you die and then get thrown away to help add to the landfill. Just learn how to torrent, put it on a harddrive and bam you own it forever. lol

Stories like these confuse me, how can you still be paying for a subscription you no longer use. That alone should have been the focus of this story.

It’s so easy to subscribe and stream and it’s on tap… but a ☠ 🏴☠️ pirate would just have software to download it at the same time… just saying!

I mean when it was just Netflix and Hulu I was fine with subscriptions. Now every channel that ever existed just added a “+” to their names and want us to pay at least 5 bucks for it. At first, it doesn’t sound bad…until you realized this is EXCLUDING cable smh

That’s what I’ve dreaded. I hope those companies will (still) offer the option buy an item online or to pay a single (song, album, movie, …) download. 🙁

This is why I’m buying physical media again while I can so that when the apocalypse happens, I’ll still have that movie.

I prefer to buy physical media and upload them into my personal cloud service that way i can flow with the times.

Maybe I’m too old to understand why not owning copies of my favorite content is a good thing. There are some films I just want to pick out and watch and not have to worry about which service has it or whether it is available that day. My library isn’t big, but it’s nice to have it there. Of course, the splintering of the streaming ecosystem increases my worries. The next worry is going to be whether manufacturers decided there isn’t enough revenue in making playback devices for physical media.

Movies and TV shows are useless on physical media. People want to watch at home, and on the go. A DVD or Blu-ray Disc is not so easy to watch on your tablet or phone. I add to that the quality of the video, DVD doesn’t appear well on a 4K display. I strongly disagree with those interviewed here though. This is an ad for the industry from a supposed impartial media outlet.

It is better to own something than to pay monthly for a subscription.

You’re forgetting about something, there’s not as much games as there are movies and songs. Plus games have a very active used market. Gamepass is great for games you’d never buy yourself, but people still buy games anyway. People like buying games so much theyre ready to buy a game 5 or 6 times from generation to generation or platform to platform.

Because of rising costs of subscriptions, I’ve started buying physical things again and closing some of my accounts. I was paying way more than I did with cable.
Subscriptions stack up so quickly and I don’t understand why people ignore that fact.

Is it a coincidence CBS interactive owns CNET, and is telling people to subscribe instead of own media? I don’t think so cnet.

If we watch a particular movie then we should get the rights to saving a physical or soft copy of it .We should reduce our dependence on the Internet all the time

There should always be the option to buy video or music. Subscriptions have been around for a long time. Cable TV is a subscription service. Now you can buy movies on Apple TV and accumulate a collection in the cloud. Your account can be given to someone else when you get old and die. Subscriptions are not bad. Having a couple can be fun entertainment.

Subscriptions are excellent value … for the first month. Then, every month you continue paying, the value is less and less. And when you stop, you are left with nothing. That being said, with all the competing services, you actually have accessibility and freedom of choice like never before. You can just pay the relevant subscription for 1 month when there is something new on you want to watch and then cancel – and it’s still excellent value. I’m more than happy to do this. I’ve been forced to pay the BBC license fee for decades and I just don’t watch it. I’m no longer happy to do that. Or, you can still buy the DVD/Blu Ray if you want it for your collection/to re-watch. We actually have exactly the same options as before, only with WAY more on top. More choice than ever before in human history. It’s not subscription services fault if people are too lazy to choose wisely and needlessly keep their subs ad-infinitum for no apparent reason. And then, there’s free software like OBS and 4K Downloader if you are prepared to learn the basics of video encoding/compression, and want to make a back-up to mkv/mp4 of any streamed material to watch back from the storage of any of your devices. Game passes, again, they are a choice. But you also have Steam and Epic Games which have ludicrously good deals/cheap games to keep. Subs are not the only option – they are additional choice. It’s all good.

Slowly approaching WEF’s “You’ll own nothing and you’ll be happy” agenda, that’s still considered to be crazy “conspiracy theory”. And it’s hard to believe that there are plenty of braindead morons who think owning nothing while the mega rich own everything is a good thing.

This is not reporting it’s a commercial for subscription services. You are trying to hype it up but consumers are clever, they know what is good value. At the end of the day subscription numbers and bottom line revenue will decide what is successful and which companies survive. If I see an ad on my subscription service, they are toast. Happy subscribing !!! ✌❤
