For the first time since Netflix started fulltime streaming it is losing subscribers. Lost 200k

Tried that physical shyt and its impossible due to my constant traveling breh. Trust I wish I had a wall of Criterion jawns and etc, but as a traveling marsupial, digital>>>>>>>boxes of dvds and shyt that's one edge to the flea market.


You back up your physicals.
With a hard drive of the physicals breh.

They been ripping y'all off on streaming so long.

Y'all ain't got no game.

Nah,people are done with streaming like that. Its one of those "If i catch it I catch it:manny:" type of things now. Its all coming down to the cellphone/ipads. That is basically the new streaming. Too much content available there to even have time for movies and tv.
Most underrated post in here

What these streaming discussions never account for is YouTube and twitch

There are people whose majority consumption is YouTube. Without even doing the math i know I'm on YouTube way more than any streaming service

Stop releasing entire whole seasons of your top shows all at once.

Disney+ got mfs tuning in every week for their marvel content and digesting each episode.

Squid Games / Witcher/ Stranger Things gets talked about for about a week or two then fall off.


Could you imagine if Game of thrones was released all at once?
Facts

The binge watch model has been proven ineffective

People love to binge watch, but you can't make that a default model in lieu of quality.

If you had to watch a lot of them Netflix shows weekly they would NOT stand up. Especially during their era where everything was 12-13 episodes

And yea the Marvel shows opened my eyes to why binge model was so bad. As a collective these shows are best experienced when they're spread out

Discussing and dissecting an episode a week at a time is healthier for the lifespan of the show. Discussions on binged shows are trash and scattered because nobodies on the same page

Hell the Film Room has great examples. Threads for weekly shows are fleshed out with good discussions. (Them Game Of Thrones days:wow:)Threads for Netflix shows are all over the place because everybody's on different episodes, nikkas trying to duck spoilers because you're only on episode 3 while other nikkas have finished the series on day one and shyt:russ:

Shows(QUALITY shows) are best experienced with the collective having the same info at the same time. Binging is great for catching up or rewatching, but as a default???:camby:

That doesnt even account for twitter,facebook,reddit and other forums like this one that integrate media. Its just alot of jumping around. Its only a few things that I watch on the daily on streaming through Sling. Other than than that i just check back periodically on the movie services. Once every few weeks to a month and see if anything interesting is added. Or if I think of something old I want to see. Like The Batman made me want to watch the Nolan films recently,so i pulled up HBO max. They should really be ahead of everyone but they arent.
