I’m argentinian. I don’t understand how we didn’t realize that this has always been the way things go. Google, OneDrive, and other services used to offer free storage for our stuff ten years ago, and once it became widespread, they started with subscription plans and all that. We had cable TV, then for a minimal cost, we got a platform for on-demand content. Then there were two, three, and now we have to pay for Disney+’s most expensive package just to watch a fútbol match.
When I had a good job, I was paying for Disney, Star, Paramount, HBO, Prime, Spotify, YouTube…
Now I can’t afford all that, and honestly, I don’t think the content I consume is enough to justify paying so much for all of it. I just want to watch The Simpsons (in latino) on my Smart TV without any hassle, and I can’t find them on Stremio. Every time I search for the MAGIS TV app, there are ten different sites, all with sketchy apps full of viruses.
Everything’s a mess, hahaha.
