ain't no one giving a fukk about an nbc or cbs streaming service

NBC is probably gonna have exclusives that's not aired on their basic cable package... if they're SMART...:ufdup:

I only pay 175 per month for DirectTV
Get everything I want.
I don't understand the streaming fad.
For that 175 you can have every streaming service with money to spare. I pay 135 and don't get no premium channels, shyt is:flabbynsick:. Contract up this month though:blessed:

Directtv going directly to them bushes. :camby:


I won't lie though nothing matches having direct with all the channels though. And the way that shyt integrates itself with the smart tvs :wow: and the 4k nba games.:mjcry:shyt ain't an easy decision.

People just have to make a choice, that’s all it is

We’re going back to when you couldn’t have everything all of the time

Cable is the one really losing here cause more people are going to cord cut to make room for these now

So we’ll spend $10 on Netflix, $10 on Hulu, $10 on Disney, $10 on amazon and still be cheaper than cable

The content creators got greedy

:mjlol:

why shouldn't the creators make money off their work?
the writer is implying that netflix was doing this out of the goodness of their hearts
they knew what was coming which is why they're spending billions to make original content
everyone is in this for the money, never you forget that :ufdup:

netflix had a monopoly on streaming, it's over now :umad:

what studios are doing is cutting out the middle man :win:

you celebrating this sounds foolish. what made netflix (and hulu) popular was having a variety of shows from different networks/studios available on one platform.

this is like if all the music labels pulled their shyt from spotify/apple/tidal and created a service for every label, aint nobody about to pay for multiple streaming services, people will start downloading again. this tv/film shyt is about to get the same wake up call.

u pay 175, some ppl have like $50 tied up in it. That's a good amount of savings. And chances are you dont watch all those channels you pay for.
