Below is a look at the most exasperating news from streaming services from this week. The scale of this article demonstrates how fast and frequently disappointing streaming news arises. Coincidentally, as we wrote this article, another price hike was announced.
We’ll also examine each streaming platform’s financial status to get an idea of what these companies are thinking (spoiler: They’re thinking about money).
Netflix starts killing its cheapest ad-free plan in June
Sony bumps Crunchyroll prices weeks after shuttering Funimation
Peacock is raising prices
Fubo cuts 19 channels
In a seemingly desperate push, many streaming services prioritize revenue and profits ahead of building the best streaming service for customers.
We could go on about how this might force people to reconsider their subscriptions, but we should publish before another service makes yet another policy change.
Awesome! But I hope you aren’t using the actual program “bitTorrent” cause that shit had a litany of privacy and security issues that I don’t even know where to start describing. A good one nowadays is qBitTorrent
You don’t solve that by using another program. You try to reduce the damage by using the torrent client in a dedicated virtual machine and reset the machine to the original image at regular intervals.
Yeah or you could, you know, just download a program that isn’t problematic.
I exclusively use qbittorrent to download Linux distros.
What do you use for other downloads?
It’s qbittorrent all the way down.
You use qbittorrent to download qbittorrent? I think that causes a rip in the spacetime continuum.
It’s an impressive piece of software, alright
Don’t forget to upload some ISOs as well! Keep the network healthy and happy :)
