It seems like a new golden age of piracy is on the horizon. How else will consumers respond?
It was so nice to stream back in the early days of Netflix streaming- so much easier than pirating. And, there was a huge library to choose from. Eventually licensing and content owners got involved and broke it up into a bunch of streaming services. But, still not a huge inconvenience if you have 2 or 3 services there is still access to a ton of content and people have largely moved on from piracy. But if the content is literally not available? How does that not make people reacquaint themselves with piracy options? Once piracy becomes normalized again, why continue paying for those 2-3 streaming service that don’t have what you are looking for anyways? It seems really short sighted and driven by bean-counters. Maybe no one believes a VPN and piracy is simple enough for the average streamer to undertake?
