RISE OF THE STREAMCUCK: HOW MANY STREAMING SUBSCRIPTIONS IS TOO MANY?

>Netflix
>Amazon
>HBO
>Hulu
>Disney+
>Apple's upcoming service
>Facebook's upcoming service
>Criterion
>live TV services like Sling, YoutubeTV, DirecTV, Philo, PSVue
>dozens of smaller TV-channels that have their own app-based streaming service

Remember when you thought you were going to SAVE MONEY thanks to the internet?

Instead, you're going to become a streamcuck. It will be the new thing to be. Every month, you will have like 10 separate bills to pay. Won't that be fun, Yea Forums? Paying more bills for TV than you do for basic utilities?

At least it's better than being a dirty, stealing pirate, right?

Dumb zoomers have no idea how much cable costed

This

It's better than being a poorcuck who can't afford anything.

>implying you have to subscribe to all
>implying they weren't all addons on cable anyway for good stuff
>implying cable wasn't stupidly expensive

>10 bills i have to pay
>implying it isn't just debited from my card

You can also just subscribe for 1 month if there is shit you want to watch, like 3 clicks and it resubs.


Disney + is $6.99/m, $69/year

They'll just hike up prices and start bundling soon. Possibly even stop stream sharing accounts.

cable without internet is less than all these services.

I've pirated and seeded hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of movies and music and television and I will continue to do so while you wages scrabble desperately in your pockets for change to pay the streamrabbi

i'll stick with not watching movies unless i want to watch them in theatres.

Here is what cable costs in Australia

I only have Amazon + the HBO channel that's within it. That gives me a shit ton of stuff, I'll pirate anything that's not on it

>I've pirated and seeded hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of movies and music and television

Remember when Netflix was cheaper just 5 years ago?

I work at an ISP/Cable company. In the next few months we're changing our pricing strategy so that everything is at-cost. Meaning you pay what we pay for cable, not a cent more or less. It also means when you bitch about your bill, we're not going to lower shit because then we'd be paying YOU to have cable. I wish we had a direct line to Disney or some shit we could transfer to.

>mfw the "transparent" pricing is within $1 of the normal bundles we do anyway.

Yikes

I have Amazon due to Prime which is my primary shopping method.

I have Youtube Premium due to Google Music, which you can share with 5 people.

I have Netflix which I pay for and share with my family. (Would cancel if they didn't use it)

I have Hulu which my mommy pays for :). (Don't use it)

I have MLB TV for free through T-mobile.

I did Youtube TV trial and it works perfectly fine. Really I only want to watch sports, fuck regular ass TV. But it's not worth $40+ dollars a month. You can also share this with 5 people just like Google Music / Youtube Premium. It's really a question of if you would trade $40 for the minor inconvenience of having to stream sporting events.

So all in all, the only cost that isn't tied to something else / additional benefits is Netflix. And I pay for that so my mommy pays for my phone line (both about $10-15).

I pay to support the content they create because I like watching them.

cuck

At least I'm not a poorcuck like (You).

Only zoomers pay for shit because they cant pirate. I havent paid for cable in 10 years, I never paid for netflix and I will never pay for any of these new streaming services

>pay for some shitty bitrate stream on some tracking infested proprietary player that records when you go take a leak
fucking zoomers

1 is too much.

I'll start paying for movies when they stop giving women and minorities leading roles in them.

Unironically this is the type of thing people wanted in the TV Era. Instead of having bundles with a bunch of channels you didn't watch, just buy the individual channels. This is basically the same thing, and might even cost less if you only pay for a couple. You're still a cuck if you pay though, unless you're only paying to download it and distribute it to others in which case you're based.

>auto pay

I pay because I consider the monthly fee worth not having to torrent everything then run it through my PC to TV, currently I only have one subscription and am fine with the current amount of content. Netflix can go fuck itself, though

faggot.

I have Amazon, and that's only because I signed up for delivery features.

>I pay because I don't know how to pirate
every thread

The XFL started of strong and ratings got worse every week. Then to try and bring ratings back he decided to bring wrestling type storylines. It was incredibly stupid and brought nothing to the game. So maybe he's a little of both or just an old man that is behind the times.

With how quick the AAFL folded, I just don't think people want year round football like they use too. The NFL did take the sky camera from the XFL. So he brought that contribution to the business.

No, I'm just fucking lazy. I pirate shit I can't find on the one service

>i can literally just pirate this shit for free on streaming websites that upload every new show as soon as its out

do people not know this exists?

Why would you pay extra for Google music or whatever when you can just use Amazon music since you have prime?

Your whole post sucks anyways

Mix of both and some craziness.

yes, you are the only special snowflake

Only thing you need to buy is a VPN and pirate everything. Imagine giving a single dollar to Hollywood

im just saying, its a free, just as easy service, as actually paying for it. i literally just browse what i want to watch and click on it and it streams instantly. i dont see how so many people are subscribing to these? but then again i guess both my brothers and sisters families all buy this shit lol.

I feel like zoomers in general pay for radio services. Also for my sanity if I ever get married, separate finances 100%

>Only thing you need to buy is a VPN
I don't even pay for that. You VPNcucks actually exist? You know there's no need to pay at all, right?

Hey user, not sure if you're aware of this - you don't actually have to sign up for every single streaming service that comes out.

I still do on a regular basis. pretty much every time I watch a movie or listen to a song. "subscriptions" are inherently cucked and I won't be a part of it if I can help it at all. it's bad enough that the internet itself is still subscription-based and location-based and you don't just connect to it for free wherever you are.

anyone still use those shitty third party sites that bitcoin mine you?

Attached: 5kSagkH.jpg (1080x1080, 100K)

this. i dont mind paying for content but im not oping to shell out 150 bucks to use less than 10% of each streaming service.

My gf pays for Apple music and she says she will never go back to downloading. But hey, at least she's paying for it and not her mommy like most of the "men" here.

I pirate all the TV for us. She used to tell me to split a Netflix bill with her but I get every show from Netflix for her before she wants to sit down and watch it.

Feels fucking good not paying the kikes.

Depends on what country you live in and how strict their piracy laws are.

The bigger problem is lack of quality content. How many of these services are making content that's not absolute dogshit.
Criterion is the only one worth paying for unless you're a braindead pleb.

And you don't see the disconnect there? If everyone pirated movies exclusively (or as you'd have it, just have movies be legally freely downloadable) there would be no film industry. If the internet was free for everyone, there would be nothing supporting the infrastructure which provides it to you. How do you think the economy works?

Everybody with a brain is using the Holy Trinity.

1) Private Torrents (free)
2) Private Usenet (free)
3) Private DDL (free)

No VPN needed and you don't need all 3.

Been doing it for 5 years and I have not paid a single cent to anybody. I did have to buy more hard drives, but they belong to me, not somebody else.

I live in the USA. You don't need a VPN here if you know how to pirate. VPNs are for retards who are scared and ignorant.

They're catalogue is quite big. How jobless are you?

Buddy of mine legitimately tried convincing me to go halfsies with him on a spotify account.
It's not just women.

i would go with:
Netflix - 13

Disney - 7

>where u guyz watching the new GOT?
1) Private Torrents (free)
2) Private Usenet (free)
3) Private DDL (free)

If you don't have at least one of these, you are shit at piracy.

Brainlet here, where the fuck do I get a legitimate free vpn?
Every free vpn I've ever tried has always been pisspoor shit that would hardly maintain a connection.

This is not what we meant when we asked cable companies for a la carte plans...

Well I don't live in USA. Laws are different everywhere. Try not being so sheltered next time

I can't even tell if people are kidding anymore

"Nothing"? Nothing supports roads and education? Is that your brain working at its hardest?

>Paying for a stream instead of downloading the file for free
Imagine being over 18 and being this stuoid

>legitimate free VPN
you don't, every free VPN is shit or spies on you

the internet should be free the same way roads and schools are free. fuckoff brainletts silicon valley CEO's agree with me. not you. i trust them a lot more than some racist idiot on Yea Forums.

>what do you mean by know how to pirate?
If you know all the possible ways to pirate and have mastered them all, you don't need to pay a single dime.

If you pay for a VPN, it is because you are a retard who doesn't know how to pirate. You think public torrents are everything and that's wrong. There's so many ways to get what you want for free and people do it all the time instead of paying.

>stealing is okay if you might not have considered buying it anyway
Git some mo purple spinnin rims, not yo color but dey free

Roads and schools are not free, that's what taxes are for lmao

This is bait

I just got the basic shit, and it's like 8 bucks a month or something. I don't need HD to watch sitcoms or whatever else they have that I watch. Fraiser is not going to be any better in HD than whatever quality I'm watching it now is

>if everyone did what some people do

irrelevant mental gymnastics. most people will always be buycucks because it's more convenient. I sometimes have to search for four different streams before one works, the image quality is shit at least half the time, connection problems happen at peak hours and some movies or episodes of shows I can't find at all*.

the typical customer of streaming services would never put up with these extra-steps and setbacks, he'd rather shell out way too much money if in return shit just works, and I can understand him. but it leads to a system where disgusting shit keeps being produced on funding from people who would never support it if they had a choice (what to fund). the VHS / DVD eco system was better and I bought movies back in those days. I simply refuse to give a penny for anything but the actual product I want. the trash TV channels make always disgusted me and netflix and competitors are just new TV channels.

>Brainlet here, where the fuck do I get a legitimate free vpn?
This indeed proves you are a brainlet because you think a free VPN might work. They don't. The answer is to stop using public torrents altogether and move to another way to pirate. There's many ways to get all the content you want for free.

So then what the fuck is user meming on about

>He pays taxes
Cuc-k

nah they free

Why not just pirate

>Every month, you will have like 10 separate bills to pay.
Or just pay for the ones that most interest you.

2 is my max. Just gotta decide which ones.

For private torrent; don't you need to seed a shit ton? Invites and so on.

how is this bait? if gov wants to regulate facebook google amazon and apple they should treat them as such. regulate the services and make them free for all like roads and schools are.

>The argument is irrelevant to the argument!
Now those are some mental gymnastics.

serious question how am i supposed to legally watch movies nowadays?
Im not a member of any streaming service.

>So then what the fuck is user meming on about
Stop focusing on VPNs. You don't need them at all. Move to other piracy methods. Public torrents are just 1 of the many ways to get content and it is the least anonymous. Learn from those more experience than you.

I use qBittorrent, is that a private torrent?

>For private torrent; don't you need to seed a shit ton? Invites and so on.
Getting invited is easy. Leaving your torrent client is easy.

And there's still private usenet and private ddl. You're also missing xdcc, private streaming sites, piracy forums, ftp groups, etc.

Learn what all these are and you never need a VPN.

bait, no one is this stupid

Go to the cinema. Buy the ticket, don't sneak in. Or watch them on tv, rent them on an app or buy the physical copy. Not exactly brain surgery.

>I use qBittorrent, is that a private torrent?
Holy shit. No wonder you people are this pathetic. Private torrents = sites that you have to become a member of that aren't being monitored by copyright groups.

And there's many other ways to pirate without every getting caught, for free.

>They'll just hike up prices and start bundling soon. Possibly even stop stream sharing accounts.
This user knows where things are headed. You'll end up with bundles that have some services you want and some you don't, just like cable. And just wait until they start tying your ability to stream to a single (home) IP address. Remember these? Expect an update.

Watch them on tv, continue reading, rent them on an app or buy the physical copy.

This, it was a goddamn rip-off. Pay out the ass each month for about 100 channels, the vast majority of which you don't give a single fuck about. And even though you're paying a subscription fee, you STILL have to deal with ever-increasing amounts of commercials anyway.

Those are all pleb filters. I have never paid for a single subscription service. I just pirate everything. If someone is too dumb to know how to pirate, they deserve the sub fees.

Pretty much every network has their own app that you can put your cable credentials into and stream stuff on demand.

Physical copies are the patrician's choice. Best picture & sound quality, nice extras and cool packaging if you're into that stuff. The Terminator endo arm is pretty sweet.

sorry you're retarded

I would honestly rather watch very old school reruns for free than pay 50$ a month, or whatever it is, for cable. I am 30 years old. I've never paid for cable tv. I've also never paid for a physical copy of a newspaper.

This is part of the reason why the whole "strong independent womyn" shit is propped up so much by the big corporations. They know women are dogshit with money and will spend it on frivilous garbage. Frivolous garbage that they are selling. More wealthy and power to women means more of them buying stupid shit. Also part of the reason why they want to replace whites with browns. Brown people are also retarded with money, and therefore make for better consumers. They can't stand the normal white man who is frugal with his money.

You never did, period. I wipe my ass with piracy notices from my ISP and nothing ever happens.

The $50 a month is only for a limited time. Then they just make you pay more without telling you when that deal is up. You also pay for every cable box you have and if you use their modem for Internet they charge you for that too.

and listening to it is free if you're not a mouth-breathing retard.

FACT: if you get a single piracy notice from your ISP without a VPN, that means you are not a good pirate.

A good pirate doesn't need a VPN at all to be completely unseen by copyright vermin.

yes this is true - depending on the nature of the state you live in and how far they bend the knee to the american oppressors. but yeah i ignored the emails too.

sending electrons over servers to my pc doesnt cost nearly as much as they charge. just like how copy pasting some 1's and 0's on a 1 cent CD didnt cost the $20 they'd charge you.

FACT: If you pirate, that means you are not a good person.

I'm really curious what's going to happen to the cable TV business once the boomers start dying off. They're literally the only ones left stupid enough to continue paying for that. Everyone I know in their 30s or under either doesn't watch TV at all, watches stuff on streaming services, or pirates.

It amazes me how the cable TV companies haven't lowered their prices to try to entice millennials into paying them. I guess they realize that no matter how low they charge, no one is going to take the offer, and so instead their strategy is to just keep jacking up the prices higher and higher to siphon the shekels out of the oblivious boomers while they're still around.

>thinks pirating is a secret elite club

Have netflix access but when I looked at it I was instantly reminded they gender/race swap everyone and was too disgusted to watch anything. It's sad how blatant it is.

I believe the prices went up. They'll probably just have everything on separate streaming services and bundle them to you for a cheaper price.

RICH PEOPLE will keep them alive. I met a lot of people with money that pay so much for cable box rentals, all the premiums, and so on. Plus streaming services. It takes a few suckers to pay prices so HIGH. that it is easier model than lowering for the rest of the populace.

How is it a "secret club" if every time the topic of where to get content from comes up, people say to each other "dude just pirate and save yourself some money"

the algorithm has adapted to this so much you get all the other streaming sites including the one you mentioned as well.

It's not them, it's more the ones constantly virtue signaling about how they're totally sticking it to the man bro or they find any little excuse to justify it to themselves. I'll at least admit I pirate because I'm a cheap asshole and that's the end of it.

why would you keep replying if yo uhave the high ground?

could it be it pisses you off that you are being cuckolded by corporations?

I remember recently visiting my uncle/aunt a year or two ago, when they would constantly get telemarketer calls during my visit. They casually mentioned that they paid something like 200$ a month for their cable HBO/land line phone etc. These calls all came on the land line I should mention. My aunt and uncle are basically retirement age, mid 60s. These are the kinds of people propping up these horrible organizations. I wouldn't be surprised if they bought physical newspapers every day too.I think they only have things like HBO so my uncle can watch shit like Game of thrones. My aunt is fucking saint and would never watch that filth. she even sings in the local church choir. I think she is just very oblivious to reality, and that's why they keep the landline around. There is literally no reason to have a land line in this day and age. I think she's kind of like my mom, who one time tried to pay a scalper for tickets with a credit card 20 years ago. Just naiive as hell.

I'm not talking about NBC and CBS, I just mean the regular stuff like AMC, TCM, stuff like that.

So this is why some colombian keeps logging into my netflix and watching some gay latino series.

whats the best service if i want to watch golden age hollywood stuff? All About Eve, singin in the rain, etc. From what i gather, criterion is mostly foreign and art films, netflix has fuck all. And I already have prime.

I've been paying for hbo to get Game of Thrones at 9 pm for the past few years. Beats sitting on IRC making sure I get the file downloaded as soon as it's uploaded. Then you'd have to wait an hour before you can play the video anyway. And then if your download was interrupted, you had a chance of losing your spot and having to wait even longer. Fuck that shit.

They've been transitioning to making all their shekels from being internet providers. They've convinced the crooked local governments in most places to prohibit any competition from anyone else wanting to offer internet, and in the places where you do have alternatives they usually suck. So unless things change, the old cable companies will just end up charging for Internet what they did for cable.

And then you buy your streaming content on top of that, goy!

Me too. But I actually play instruments and don't just fill in midi on pirated software.

you are killing this planet you lazy entitled faggot.

Similar story with my parents in their mid-50s. It took me the longest time to finally convince them that they're just wasting fucktons of money on cable+landline. But I finally convinced them, and now they just have their cells and the local TV networks via antenna for free. And then a terrarium stick or whatever the fuck that is that they have loaded with some program that pulls everything for free.

It's Criterion, but you're right, classic Hollywood isn't the bulk of it. You're better off sticking with DVDs, because you won't find that shit anywhere.

This, I use Amazon video sometimes because it comes with prime but otherwise piracy is the way to go.

IPTV > legit live TV services like Sling, YoutubeTV, DirecTV, Philo, PSVue

Good point. Honestly once ISP costs get too high (they're already ridiculous as it is) I'll probably cut that too and just have a mobile data plan and use my phone as a tether for everything.

Pirates will win.

Why are you people so proud of stealing?

Because it feels good not being a dumb chump

>stop stream sharing accounts
This is actually what keeps them afloat, the person sharing feels SHAME if they cancel it on their friends and family. They are more than likely trading it for another service share not being used.

Man PSvue has one of the worst browser players I have ever seen. Terrible menus and a cluttered mess. Only trial I wanted to end ASAP

Even in this case the price of recording equipment, mics , sound proofing - its just not like it used to be. Its cheap and it makes the content almost worthless
It is all scaled down and there is ALOT of content.

the shame of it is no one is buying what you are selling.

I do genuinely feel sorry for actual musicians, but not that much.
Just like I don't feel so sorry for actors, sportsmen who don't hit the big bucks.

Criterion Channel is definitely one of the best streaming services now for movies.

I don't know if I convinced my mom to give up the cable, but there are multiple channels on terrestrial media, so that she really has no need for the the cable. She just likes watching her old shows. which I Imagine I would be in the same position at her age. Fuck this new shit, just let me watch my old classics. idk if it's national but she loves MeTV. Just old ass popular shows the boomers eat up

Good luck with that. 5G will rek everyone's wallet when it comes with capped data that everyone blows through in a day suddenly. The mobile guys keep jewing out on anything resembling real unlimited high speed internet so they won't save us.

I can't believe they couldn't even come up with an original UI, instead ripping off Netflix so much that when I look at their UI imagines I feel like I'm looking through Netflix for something to watch.

Why are you so proud of enormous companies stealing from you? There's paying for indie gamedevs or musicians and then there's paying these fucking jews.

Problems arise when costs go down but income becomes almost nonexistent.
I'm not complaining. I'd rather go hungry again than quit. I am actually good at this.
I know most music is shit. Just stream the stuff that stands out on spotify once in a while, or spend a couple of bucks on it some way. That's not unreasonable.

>They've convinced the crooked local governments

Convinced through campaign contributions, of course. Campaign finance laws are laughable. We like to brand ourselves as anti-corruption, while pointing our noses at other shitholes with rampant corruption. Meanwhile the only fucking reason our society isn't "technically" corrupt is because the corruption is legal.

Boomers. Nobody gives a fuck about them.

Nah it's cool

All mexicans or chinese working for low as fuck wages. Fuck'em.

>Why are you so proud of enormous companies stealing from you?
You're fucking delusional. If they offer me a service and I pay for it then no one is stealing from anyone. I'm happy and they're happy. If the service stops being good enough, or too expensive, I'll just stop paying for it, and stop getting the service in return. There's no problem here.

I had all these services but no way to watch them on my tv. Now comcast was nice enough to let me rent what is basically a roku.

You dumb.

Either way, I just want a service that let's me look over their content in a useful way. I get why they don't; it keeps people in the dark on what's really there. This is why I am cynical about technology in general. We keep getting these "dreams of the future" technologies but they always find a way to jew them hard so that they're never reaching their full potential. They don't end up improving your life so much as complicating and confusing it.

>Want Disney+ and Hulu?

I don't want a service. I dont want to "stream" it and I am not using multiple different sites to get my music.

it is actually far easier to own music by using torrents. The music industry is a fucking mess.

Wish you luck - hope it works out for you, hope the industry can find a way to get the shit out there without ripping people, artists off and locking them into shit services like spotify.

>can find a way to get the shit out there without ripping people

We all know which group of people is overrepresented in both Hollywood and the music industry. Now allow me to tell you a little story, or a joke. It's a very common story that originated within the Jewish community and is told to Jewish children. So it's not anti-Semitic, not by a mile. It runs like this:

A father was teaching his little son to be less afraid, to have more courage, by having him jump down the stairs. He placed his boy on the second stair and said, “Jump, and I’ll catch you.” and the boy jumped. Then the father placed him on the third stair, saying “Jump, and I”ll catch you.” Though the boy was afraid, he trusted his father, did what he was told, and jumped into his father’s arms.
Then the father put him on the next step, and the next step, each time telling him, Jump, and I’ll catch you, and each time the boy jumped and was caught by his father. And so this went on. Then the boy jumped from a very high step, just as before; but this time the father stepped back, and the boy fell flat on his face. As he picked himself up, bleeding and crying, the father said, “that will teach you: never trust a Jew, even if it’s your own father.”

Point being, the whole point to the music industry and Hollywood to these people is precisely to rip you off.

To all the poorfags explain the economics if everyone pirated like you. Do you even understand market capitalism? Would content exist? If enough people pirate there ceases being things to pirate.

But not everyone pirates.

>mommy pays
>doesnt include internet price + data cap fees

I literally wouldn't care if piracy collapsed the market. I will always pirate. I will never buy a single Blu-ray. I will never pay a cent for any streaming service. I will never be a cuck like you, because I don't give a fuck if your industry burns to ashes.

This is true as well, there's no market today that doesn't deserve collapsing, and that goes triple for the entertainment industry.

Thanks for your service, faggot.

>If enough people pirate there ceases being things to pirate.
That's fine. Let it happen. I will just laugh at people like you who care while I find something else to do with my time.

>If more people pirated, Hollywood studios wouldn't be able to assert immense amounts of social control by buying up companies unrelated to the movie making industries, nor would they be able to turn billions of dollars in profit each year, nor would they be able to churn out $20 million for one actor to work 2 months on set

Oh gee, what a nightmare that would have been. It's almost as if they'd have to turn back to 1990s levels of production.

So you don't believe in capitalism? Are you socialists? Or maybe just into handouts. I prefer to pay for services and don't enjoy leeching off everyone else

yep. which is why I have no remorse.

I honestly hope the entertainment industry collapses due to piracy. It will never happen, but if it did, I wouldn't care. I would just laugh. I would gleefully enjoy you people crying because Hollywood is gone and I would be proud to be a part of it because of my tens of thousands of dollars of piracy over the past 12 years of my life. Then I would either a) just watch the existing content online b) do something else like hang out with friends more.

>dont be a doctor because if everyone was a doctor the economy would collapse

Unrestrained capitalism is as pants-on-head retarded as communism is.

>If you're against capitalism you either are a commie or live on welfare

YO HO YO HO A PIRATE'S LIFE FOR ME
Sometime I tell normies I pirate everything just to see them try to rationalise paying a million dollars a month for Netshits and whatever else

First world country lmao

we would have :

less shit movies
lower paid actors
and an industry that tried to make honest content.
AND NO FUCKING CAPESHIT

a utopia if you will...

I just don't care about that industry. It's gross. It's fake and gay. I don't really care if it dies. I like pirating all their content. I do it even though I can pay because why not? Why put my earnings into their hands when I can download it for free? I did it in college and I will do it with my aged hands before I die.

It's sadder that you actually feel you have a duty to pay for entertainment. You probably are gay or cucked.

More likely a boomer. They are the ones who've been exploiting the unrestrained capitalism at the cost of their own childrens futures. They're also the ones who unironically fell for the "capitalism is patriotism" propaganda which was rampant during the cold war to keep the commies from gaining any influence.

piracy is the most capitalistic thing there is, why would i pay for something i can get for free? forcing people to pay for movies is socialist

Piracy is pretty normal where I live (it was more common in the past sadly), there's good things about living in the third world.

seriously 1080p yify rips look better

So you are a hypocrite. Thanks for making that plain

I'll go with what the other user said. You're baiting. Nobody's this fucking retarded. Not even here.

What makes you think I care to support their content? Because I have no interest in supporting it, if not for piracy, I literally would have never bothered paying them a dime for their shit.
I hope the industry collapses due to piracy, but it won't because people like you overwhelmingly exist.

My part of the economic spectrum is the "never pay the kikes" part of the spectrum. This is the only ideology that makes sense, while the rest of the idelogies amount to "be a good goy and pay the Jews whenever they want"

Piracy wouldn't be such a problem if we weren't denied a public domain by the same companies that are being hurt by piracy. If copyright expired 20/30 years after a product being released, like any sane person who has given it any thought would tell you is more than generous, it wouldn't be such a fucking ball ache to find shit to watch.
You want public domain music? Drive to the fucking library of congress and listen to some wax cylinders. You literally have no other option. Why is Citizen Kane not in public domain? Why do you still have to pay licensing fees to listen to fucking Mr Sandman or Blue Suede Shoes?
THAT'S the fucking problem with these companies - you are being denied a robust and useful public domain because they lobbied for entirely unreasonable copyright term to sell you things where literally everyone involved in its production has been dead for 50 years. Nobody should continue to benefit off The Beatles or Gone With The Wind for this long.
Imagine a world where access to popular culture from your father's generation was the right of a citizen. Hollywood excess and middlemen are cut down and no longer able to live lavishly for the rest of their lives on "that one thing they did 60 years ago".

There is no reason for this. It's all lobbying and a lack of public interest pushing literally unconstitutional laws through congress for the benefit of corporations. It has repeatedly been shown to stifle the growth of culture and creativity.

for what fucking purpose? Copyright doesn't exist to give companies exclusive rights to their products indefinitely. The entire point of copyright law is to give a period for a company to recoup development costs without having to worry about competition, not protecting the work in any moral or legal sense. The constitution literally states:
>To promote the progress of science and useful arts, by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries.
FOR A LIMITED TIME, to promote the progress of useful arts. How does an unlimited copyright produce the progress of useful arts?

Clearly a jewish response. How about making things public domain when the last original rights holder dies. Or tie it to the last person alive who participated and still earns from it.

Once every soul that made a thing is dead, it should belong to the world.

I'm reporting you to the ADL for anti-Semitism.

how is it greedy to say that these crazy internet copyright policing laws would be a whole lot easier to swallow if copyright term was actually reasonable. If tech companies could say "we know it sucks not being able to use top 40s music in your youtube video, but you have a big catalog of public domain music to draw on" it would promote the "progress of useful arts" as well as allow companies to recoup development costs on their investments into the arts. Instead mega corporations get to sit on their century-old music licenses and charge blockbuster licensing rates for songs that recouped their development cost a week after being released. That is literally unconstitutional and yes, technology has already invalidated the single actual reason put forth for the extension of copyright laws in the first place
