    Oof. I guess sailing the high sees is back on the table.

    We are back to cable pricing, but shows and movies are all over the place and now we need multiple apps to track us.

      We are worse than cable pricing at this point from what I can see.

      It's absurd that piracy is the _best_ user experience. 1 app, 1 place for your content, no licensing deals to worry about, no outrage pulling old episodes, local streaming, the list goes on.

      You literally cannot pay (legally) for a better experience, and that makes me sad.

        Also no revising the show due to expired music licenses, change in the director's mood, etc.
