When people run out of money to pay for a billion subscriptions, companies will have to think hard about their business model. I don’t think the current trend can last forever.
Look at the fragmentation of streaming services. Piracy is on the rise again because of it.
Look for “romcenter markdown edition 2023” and you might find stuff that’s not on Vimm’s vault, like the XBLA games. :)
I’m not sure. My comment is still up and it’s a really pissed off one. Might be the YT antispam script triggered by words like sex and Onlyfans, which I didn’t use in my comment for that exact reason.
I mean, they already fucked up big time. If they now delete comments and it gets out, they’re digging their own grave. There’s also a lengthy discussion on their official forums which they haven’t shut down yet.
It was made as an April fools joke. I think only pictures of Linus in LTT underwear.
I believe they posted their last update video before Madison’s Twitter posts.
If the allegations about the sexual topics are true (like managing the OnlyFans account and having to see other people’s junk, being told to twerk for a coworker and getting asked about “how she liked to fuck”) LTT is in some serious trouble.
No sponsor in their right mind wants to be associated with a bunch of grown men sexually assaulting their female coworkers. If this isn’t cleared up totally and publically, LTT will lose a lot of sponsors and this can seriously hurt them.
When the employee handbook leaked a few months ago and this was mostly ignored by Linus except him making a rant about the company not needing unions because they’re so great, that was already very suspicious to me. It seemed like just another hustle culture company trying to sweep things under the rug. Well, looks like it was not just a feeling…
Just keep the L to show everyone what you really think about Linus.
Tiktok generation with short attention span detected.
Someone gave like $100 or something insane for a super chat question and he was rude to them.
Should’ve bought a backpack instead. /s
Add to that, any streaming content that is not available in the original language. Here in Germany, a lot of older movies are only available to stream with the terrible German dub. I’m not paying for that so I’m not paying at all.
But that’s mostly because Outlook is still holding us back. Come on, Microsoft, please let it die in peace already.
The one time he landed his time machine in the middle of some spectators: “Don’t worry, we’re doing a low-budget science fiction series”
I still remember that to this day. It’s a great series, they let it end when it was still awesome and didn’t drag it out any longer.
A good quality version of the “VR.5” tv series from 1995. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VR.5
It’s a TV show about virtual reality and has peak 90’s aesthetic. They shot the scenes in "virtual reality"on black and white film and colorized them manually afterwards to create a very distinct and vibrant look. That must’ve been so much hard work.
Sadly, there is only a 240p VHS rip with extremely terrible quality out there. I’ve always wanted to watch the whole thing, but it’s too degraded to enjoy like this.
Very similar situation here. Around 2017/2018 I had Netflix and Prime Video. I was able to watch 95% of the content I wanted to watch and only had to download some obscure 90’s SciFi series they didn’t have.
But the industry had to fuck it up and create too many platforms. We have Netflix, Prime, Disney+, HBO, Paramount Plus, Apple TV+ and many more. I am not subscribing to your service because one or two titles might interest me. It’s way too much cost for a lot less value I had in 2018.
I even wanted to make an exception for Apple TV+ because their series are absolutely amazing. But they force you to buy an expensive Apple device to watch the content in 4K on the Safari Browser. Go fuck yourself, Apple. It’s not even a technical issue, because they play the trailers in 4K but then switch to 480p with a terrible bitrate.
Don’t go to the big media outlets and start crying that piracy is too damn high if you make it more inconvenient to watch your programs legally than just downloading an MKV file from somewhere.
Liftoff is awesome, I just couldn’t find it when searching the name on the Play Store. Opening this link worked: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.liftoffapp.liftoff
watchsomuch.to works pretty well for me. Their filtering options can certainly be improved, but they have most of the 4K TV series content I need.
