Re: Streaming services news, offers and general chit chat

More of the same old goalpost-shifting from OB I see. Of course many posters here will remember him opining that one of the many reasons streaming is superior is because the streamers have vast back catalogues and there’s no danger of ever running out of things to watch. It was supposed to be a fundamental differential between streamers and linear broadcasters. Now, we’re used to the idea that streamers rent other studios’ content for a limited time, but now suddenly they’re removing stuff, without warning, while they still hold the rights to it. They’re removing stuff mid-drop. *

Looks like another aspect of OB’s paradise has gone the same way as ‘streamers will never introduce adverts’.

I’d stick to the day job OB (whatever that is), because your career as a crystal-ball-gazing tech futurologist is not working out.

*Nu Quantum Leap is a bit meh to be honest, but it’s the principle of the thing … I was about 2 3rds of the way thru it. Now I’ll never know if Dr Song’s next leap will be the leap … home
