Online piracy in the EU is increasing for the first time in years, driven by a lack of legal alternatives and income inequality.

I was fine when it was just Netflix and Hulu. Corporate greed pulling their content to get their own piece of the pie en masse made me hoist the flag and join the Kodi Real-Debrid gang.

Video needs to be like music streaming.

One price, all the content, pay the rights holders based on how much of their shit was watched.

It’s really not hard. You just need to stop being such greedy fucks.

It is a bit more complicated than that, different countries have different laws.

But I do agree that Netflix has taken the easy approach by only limiting the content to which they don’t have to do any research.
