Amazon Prime Video is able to remove a video from your library after purchase.

  • I appreciate that, but unless you can automate it through an iPhone app, I'm not interested. My life is complicated enough and I want my music access to be seamless.

    • Netflix is planning to raise prices… again

  • They're finding the optimal price point. Each time they raise they lose some customers, but their increased revenue leads them to being more profitable afterwards. Eventually the price increases will result in so many people leaving that they'll have to stop.

    Problem is, this strategy has exactly one direction: irrelevance. It can take a very long time to get there, but eventually you lose so many subscribers that your competitors have begun eating your lunch. The profits were solid so you didn't care. It's the normal business life cycle, and Netflix is well into the mature phase. We have worse quality and higher prices to look forward to.

  • I love my Plex library. I use YouTube Music because I think it's more convenient and fair for the price. It's one service for basically all music. Movies and shows, on the other hand, is an absolute cluster fuck. I'm perfectly happy to pay for good content, but I'm not okay with paying for 10 services where the content keeps shifting and disappearing and being retroactively edited so as not to offend "modern audiences."

    Valve turned me from gaming pirate to VERY solid customer. Spotify turned me from music pirate to customer. I am patiently waiting for the visual media industry to pull their heads out of their asses.
