Streaming went to shit when everyone made their own. It was good and worth the money when it was one portal with everything available.

And the funny thing is, rather than competition driving down prices, they only seem to be competing for who can charge the most while showing more ads.

They're not truly competing because they make every show they can exclusive to their platform

Fair point, honestly. It's more like a group of mini-monopolies than any kind of actual competitive space.

Yep, there can be no competition with exclusive access
