    Netflix is my last bastion of legit media. I was only using Netflix for a number of years and reduced the amount of new media I downloaded to nothing.

    I never bought into all the additional services that popped up after it, like Apple and Disney, and just reverted to downloading for the stuff that wasn’t available anymore.

    I still pay for Netflix though. I pay for myself and my Mum as an additional account. I also pay for a friend from another country so I effectively have 2.5x subs to premium Netflix.

    If they add ads, then I’m done with all the bullshit and will just download 100%.

      Spotify now has ads on Premium when listening to podcasts. It’s infuriating and frankly insulting. Podcasts are cheap as dirt to make compared to music.

      I think I’ll cancel Spotify.

      Pretty much where I am at.
      Piracy is a service issue, I think Steam proves that.
      If that service isn’t viable any longer, time to move on
