There's like 2 decent movies released per year. I think people can do without.

No no you don't get it. The point is to hoard the movies. Not to watch them!

They're like Steam games: You collect more than you play.

I'm in this comment and I don't like it. (/s)

Strange, my reddit account seems to have had all its posts and comments deleted and my IP leads back to Proton. Oopsy daisy. Get fucked clowns.

[–] WallEx@feddit.de 0 points 9 months ago

So glad I did that when they fucked with their api

Or, perhaps it would be more cost effective to spend your money developing a way to access content that isn’t user-hostile. Then, suddenly, piracy wouldn’t be on the rise.

But how does that pay the shareholders?

[–] Haha@lemmy.world 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It doesn’t. Fuck em.

[–] WallEx@feddit.de 0 points 9 months ago

Meh, more like eat em.

I know that you mean that sarcastically, and I agree. In the end, they could be happy with some passive income on old IPs but decide to be greedy instead.

Yeah it's sarcasm ^^
