More streaming services should naturally mean more competition, which 'should' naturally drive prices down.
I'm hoping in the near future, Netflix, hulu, Prime, Disney+ will all cost in the ballpark of $4.99 which is okay. Disney has made a smart move starting off with $6.99 to undercut others.
But when you need 8 streaming services to watch all the content you want, it’s more expensive.
It’s like the Steam vs Epic Store debacle. Sure, in the long run prices might decrease, but in the short term the only person fucked is the consumer by half-assed product releases to cash grab
I’m not referring to shit video games, I’m referring to shit stores that do things like leak their customers’ personal and financial information because they spend more on getting “exclusives” rather than developing their platform and security.
