mos_8502 :verified: on Nostr: Every production company running its own streaming service is not only stupid, but ...
Every production company running its own streaming service is not only stupid, but also inherently a doomed idea. Yes, the naive math suggests that getting your viewers to pay you directly means more money -- but that ignores the realities of the situation, which is that people don't have brand loyalty to television studios. They watch shows, and they don't care who made them, and they definitely don't want to pay for seventeen different services each of which has one show they like. They will pirate or just not watch instead.
