  • Streaming services should be required to provide free access where they are allowed to put ads at the beginning and only once or twice depending length and not cutting a scene. And maybe free access could be limited to a number of episodes.

    Anyway my point is be real, some people won’t pay because they can’t or because you don’t want to subscribe to 10 streaming sites. Especially when sometimes there is only one anime, tv shows you are interested in. So real solutions should be found if companies really wants to fight piracy…

    For Tv shows piracy has never been so low as when Netflix had reasonable price and was the only one. It offered a real alternative and people where willing to pay for it.
    I also believe crunchyroll do a lot of good as it has a quasi monopoly but it’s starting to erode with Netflix and Disney starting to get animes. 😕







  • What I find annoying is for what you occasionally use.

    For instance I started to listen more frequently to a songs service (which I was bypassing ads) and so I thought to officially subscribe. When I looked at prices I didn’t because it was too costly and knowing me I could stop anyday to use it. Price for one was above 10 when for two it was something like 14 so 7 per person and which I would have been ok to pay. Good for me because I stopped to listen some weeks after and it has beek years I didn’t really use it.

    I think, especially for video and audio media consumption, you should pay a global amount and it should be split between services you used. Split should be based on usage.
