Pay up, billionaires.
Presumably you meant: "Bribe someone for 1/1000th the cost."
It's mildly insulting how cheap some people can be bought for. Like a few grand "contributions" from a multi billion dollar company is enough? Come on, have some self respect.
Disney will just cry and whine about how their streaming service isn't making enough money.
And that's their problem. Not ours.
Their failure to develop a business strategy shouldn't mean that the rest of the world should pay for it. Netflix made money back when they were the de facto streaming service, maybe the old model of vertically integrated production & distribution doesn't work any more, and maybe, just maybe, they should try catering to consumers who just want a one-stop shop , instead of trying to muscle in on every segment of the supply chain?
As a society, we should never have let content producers and content distributors merge. And while we can't do anything about Disney in Canada, we could, eg, force Bell to turn back time and split into it's network and production businesses. Same for Rogers. Same for Shaw and so forth.
