Streaming platform Disney+ is updating its subscriber agreement and is adding a no-sharing-passwords policy.
Steam is a prime example. I don’t want to pirate, because I like the services they provide.
Make that, but for movies. I suppose that’s what Netflix was at some point.
At one point Netflix was better than pirating. It had a catalog of nearly everything in existence and I could impulse watch something without any preparation… while with pirating I had to wait for the download to finish and, occasionally, fish around for a decent copy of what I wanted.
Then they cut off VPN use… Then their catalog got thinner… Then they raised the price… And then, the line I hated most of all, they became advertising subsidized for some tiers.
There’s a reason I’m happy to tell Bezos to go fuck himself… and that reason is ads of Amazon prime. (I mean, there are lots of other reasons, too).
