Now that you mention it I’m surprised the actors and/or writers haven’t suggested folks cancel their streaming services temporarily to show support for the “little guys” against the studios. Maybe they’re afraid of the long-term effects if people do get used to watching less?
- Auracle 3y agoI think that would be something like asking a friend to key your boss’s car when you’ve given an ultimatum that you want a raise or you’ll quit.
- cgio 3y agoToo risky for them too, indeed. They go for a bigger piece of the pie, but are motivated for the pie to remain big. I don't know how the content gap will fill though and I do expect people will start cutting down on subscriptions after Christmas. There's only so much one can get from foreign productions where the industry is not scaled, and the criteria for success are even harder. My alternative proposition would be for the actors and writers to allow for crowd-funded productions and go for individual show/movie streams. I would personally invest in a production happening in the midst of dearth of content.
