If I have to google which streaming service a PBS show is on for my kid to watch. Something's messed
PBS shows are free on its own app/website though...
You'd think that, wouldn't you?
In actuality, they pull shit like only having the most recent season of things and whatnot. For example, there's no good reason why the PBS Kids Roku channel wouldn't have all 4666 episodes of Sesame Street, but it doesn't.
may i introduce you to the ARD Mediathek where 'Die Sendung mit der Maus' (a kind of sciency kids show) can have, by law, only the latest episode available for streaming. some other things may be available for longer, but it's still pretty stupid...
