It's the point that these jerk wuads are trying to run their own studios that's causing the mainstay of the failure.

They're expecting us to pay for their content failures.

Prior to everybody running their own crappy studio, They licensed what we wanted to watch, they negotiated decent prices and we watched it. If a studio didn't make good content it didn't get purchased.

It's the whole discovery channel aliens, reality TV enshitification all over again.

They're hemorrhaging, money they'll stop producing the more expensive stuff they'll produce the cheaper stuff people watch the cheaper stuff, the whole time screaming it's the pirates fault.
