"it's hard to compete with free" no actually it's very easy to compete with free just stop charging for an objectively worse product in every way.

like I just want it to be clear that even if you had and were willing to spend infinite money you would still get a better service out of piracy than Netflix. the issue isn't one of price, it's entirely one of service

do you know how heavy a feature-length film in 4k is using hevc 10bit? 10GB. I've seen 2GB uploads of feature-length movies at 1080p. 2 Gigabytes!! GitHub lets you host that much data literally for free! My desktop computer can decode that shit for breakfast! There is absolutely no excuse for a service that you PAID for not to provide you with a high quality 4k stream if you have the bandwidth for it. Streaming services are a scam.

like, the entire POINT of switching from analog media to digital media was so that we could make perfect/flawless/lossless copies of things in unlimited quantities. We literally created digital abundance and we somehow managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory by imposing artificial scarcity on top of something that is intrinsically not scarce.
