Seems like it's a coalition that will have app developers, app stores, maybe an OS, etc.

Look at the video of the daylight. It's a really ugly display IMO.

Every use case you described is already filled much better IMO by the high fps e-ink tablets like the Boox Tab Ultra. I would not want to do any of those things on the shitty screen shown in this post.

Fair enough but is that enough to buy a whole different computer with a much worse display? Modern e-ink displays can do probably 10-15 fps on high frame rate which, while not perfect, is probably adequate.

I still miss the visualzers.

No idea what the niche would be for this as there are already excellent looking e-ink displays which can play video in a pinch. Who's going to go for a shittier looking one just for a higher refresh rate? I don't think many gamers are looking for shitty looking black and white screens.

That's one of the longest outages I've ever seen from a cloud company.

Tl;dr?

For movies I will go the extra mile and break out Kodi and go with the big file as I will usually watch it right away and then delete it. For TV, 4k streaming is plenty good enough.

I find 4k streaming to be absolutely good enough for general tv streaming. It's a bit better on some services than others. Amazon and Netflix do it the best, but it's generally pretty good on all of the,.

I find it easier to get 4k streaming than to download such large files.

Geographic restrictions. I live in Czechia. I can afford to pay for content and generally do if I can, but there is quite a lot of content I want that is not available via any content service whatsoever here. For that I sail the high seas.
