I’m always surprised too. At least the market is sorta working.

In a lot of ways Netflix won. Many people aren’t going to bother pirating their content and would rather just pay or at least subscription hop. We’re in the greed portion of streaming where everyone wants a bigger and bigger slice. If Netflix did not create original content, I’m not sure they’d still be around.

Ironically this is a double edged sword. If they merge, expect prices to rise. Won’t be long before $100/mo is expected and accepted.

I think a lot of people are exhausted from weaponized health care. People want affordable coverage. Not the most expensive, least efficient health care in the world.
