The boss of the streaming giant also calls for an end to the strikes disrupting Hollywood.

I feel like other streaming platforms will follow the same process as they’ve proven it’s worked.

    Actually, buying anything means you participate in the marketing circle jerk. That’s what George Carlin taught me.

      It’s unfortunate that George Carlin gets taken out of context so often. Also the insane amount of disdain for regular people who just want to sit on a couch, watch a show, and shitpost about it in a group chat with friends.

      I guess some folks are really into pirating, and that’s whatever, but I work a 40hr workweek and go out with people regularly. $15 to netflix or $50/mo across a couple subscriptions is simply cheaper than any effort I need put into caring about pirating anything.
