Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
Viewers can choose to watch what they want, when they want, now. Many don't, and still work around the schedule to a greater or lesser extent. It makes it easier to speak to people in the real world (I know, it's weird) in office scenarios if everyone is at the same point.
"Ah, have you seen series 2 episode 5 of..."
"Nah I'm only on episode 4"
Doesn't have the same ring to it as
"Did you see last night's..."
"Yeah it was amazing... Didn't see that ending coming"
Some people like being at the same point as everyone else to have conversations, interact with social media, etc.
Even the taboid press, morning TV shows, and websites want you to be at roughly the same spot.
