On the one hand: Yay, competition (kinda). On the other hand, I just see stupid fragmentation.

And the app itself isn't that great. I had to take a moment to figure out how to "view all movies" the other day. It shouldn't have been difficult.

Me too, but not with ads. It's 2021, let's do something better.TheCatt wrote: ↑Thu May 20, 2021 10:45 amI can get behind lower prices.Leisher wrote: ↑Thu May 20, 2021 10:26 am HBO MAX needs subscribers, so here comes their lower priced, ad supported version.
Although, let me add a caveat. If you're going to force me to watch ads, up your ad game. I want R rated ads. Darker comedy. More violence. Etc.
Of course, our horribly toxic society would never allow advertisers to have fun in 2021...

They have boobs in ads in Europe, or something.
I'd honestly like to do an experiment: Find some hot woman who somehow hasn't shown her tits, but is willing to for charity. Have her do a quick ad wearing something very sexy, but not too revealing. Have her explain the good work the charity does, and if viewers are about to go to www.hbomax.com and give $100K within 1 week, she'll do another commercial wearing nothing but a G string and cover nothing up.
The charity would need to benefit women to really confuse the feminists who would otherwise complain.
Who wants to bet they easily hit their mark?

Amazon buys MGM.
This is a pretty big deal and really pumps up Prime as a real contender in the streaming wars.
Prime and Disney (Hulu/Disney+) are probably way too big and financially secure to fail, so who of the "giants" will be the first to fall? Will any fall?
I'm betting on NBC/Peacock. If I was running Netflix, that's exactly who I'd be considering buying. It'd give Netflix a pretty impressive TV library of shows people actually still want to watch.

Dish and Sling customers woke up today to discover their services no longer have any Disney channels, which is kind of a big deal on a Saturday in the fall. ESPN, ABC, SEC Network, ACC Network, etc.
People are PISSED and looking for streaming alternatives. It's not the missing channels, but rather, the lack of a heads up.
They both tweeted out this exact same thing:

WB Discovery (horrible name) suing Paramount over South Park.
It's no secret that WB Discovery is not cash rich and that streaming services are hemorrhaging money, not making it, with few exceptions. Are we going to see more lawsuits like this as entities scratch and claw to survive?

Disney+ and Hulu are merging.
Disney is also purging content, which means putting stuff away to be brought back out later.
