The saturation in digital/streaming video is simply out of control now.
I'm gonna buy Netflix, Amazon prime since it's free with prime anyway, and maybe just another one like Hulu on a subscription basis.
But no, I'm not gonna throw my dollars on every little platform out there like Disney+, HBO, Vudu, Fandango, and other crappy services from other companies just because some content I needed exists only there. Guys, if we look closely this is basically all back to TV Channels all over again.
So, no thank you. I'll keep pirating my content with a VPN.
- Underphil 5y agoWhat really bothers me is that if I watch a non-English film on Netflix or Amazon Prime, the subtitles are often garbage. Sometimes even English films have spelling mistakes and poor attempts to condense the dialogue. With piracy, I have a choice of multiple subtitle providers.
- princevegeta89 5y agoHmmm, haven't run into situations with bad subtitles on foreign films, I watched a few and they were decent. I thought there was good quality control. But I definitely agree on the absence of multiple choices and options when it comes to dialogue and subtitles
- Underphil 5y agoNot that I've seen it, but I'm told the subtitles for Squid Game lost a lot of context in the translations.
- princevegeta89 5y agoAre you talking about the dubbing? Or just subs? Dubbing was ..pure nonsense. Subs, I could definitely tell they're off.
