Doubtful, user. Doubtful.

Piracy will replace streaming after streaming kills itself, regulations and tracking will halt piracy, web 3.0 will negate regulations and tracking, cloud computing will kill web 3.0, streaming services will become an unavoidable cost, socialism will provide access to streaming services for the cost of your soul. A confused, underutilized, misunderstood society will implode on itself, slow descent into the next dark age, religion. "Cough cough" *hits child*.

I hate my smart tv for this very reason. They're like clunky old computers with 1 gig of ram.

traditional tv is literally an HBO and housewives machine now

It's better this way WhitePeopleHappy

>his tv is connected to the internet
you deserve this

stop acting as if there was ANY bearable solution to the problem that deviates from watching shit on a big tower desktop pc by even a nanometer

As long as the microphone in it works to record everything that happens in your living room that's all Google cares about lmao.

you're going to call me Yea Forums and underage for this but i've been using the ps4 netshills and amazon prime apps for years without problems

Will you run to reddit when this place gets shut down the mods on 8/tv/ post your info?

made me think of back to the future

>OP doesn't have TV Plus from Samsung
How embarrassing, it's almost 2020 and you don't have a smart TV yet

Brooo look at this duuude

nope. streaming will kill itself.

streaming is a retarded fad that will die out when zoomers get their drivers licenses

mine says i have like 1,000 extra channels but i haven’t gone through all of them. have you? are they mainly reruns of old shows?

asmon is alright, much better than that fucking unhumble twat ninja

watching twitch streams kills more brain cells than normal TV

They're basically youtube episodes being played in order like tv shows. Some aren't bad to throw on in the background

>Will streaming kill traditional TV?
No, streaming is simply becoming traditional TV. Paywalls are temporary before interactive advertising becomes the norm.

YouTube/Alphabet already switched from paywall to ads, but in three years, imagine ads like those now on shitty phone games, where you are forced to watch 30 sec ads, not just forced but these streaming ads will require you to "play" or to answer questions during or after the ad to confirm you're paying attention. In exchange, you'll get three hours of viewing time. Then repeat. The latest smart tvs will have eyetracking to make sure you're paying attention.

From here, do your own extrapolation. Want to stream a new Marvel special? Or a trailer before anyone else? Answer this 50 question quiz to test your loyalty. You will build "points" by accomplishing tasks and ad views, that allow you greater access. The old adage that your content will end up watching you is becoming reality.

In 20 years, there will be great nostalgia for the "wild west" of traditional TV, just as there is now for 90s suburbia. Nostalgia for freedom from the corporate eye.

Yes but not the way it is now, the only one getting closer is Dr.Disrespect,manned by 2 or 3 people, its like a waynes world

but it needs more creativity/production to get to tv show status

Fuck no. The appeal is the escapism for the lonely people who wish they could form meaningful relationships on their own. Streaming replaced TV's function is background noise. Actively watching streams is some of the most boring shit I've done in my life.

He had forty THOUSAND people watch him clean his desk yesterday. I get it's a mess but holy shit. Successful streamers transcend the typical celebrity cult.

>he thinks he was actually an incel
I hate that fat bitch poopernoodle
bitch literally saw his bank account and then bought a fucking trampoline at the store and the wrong chocolate

bitch totally fucked him and then got mad when he chose to play league of legends the rest of the night instead of staying in bed with her

then bitch got mad that he didn't IRL stream with her

this board fucking sucks
(and fucks)

Prediction. Streaming services will turn into the next Cable. Too many streaming services hosting fuck all content are already emerging. Soon someone will collect all of them in a package and boom, there's your new version of Cable.

but you can watch streaming for fucking free

>fps streamer bundle get subs to shroud, summit, and insert random retard you want to blow up here for 10 dollar subscription a month
Such great savings fellow zoomers, 3 guys for 10 bucks, wew lad
Tell me you retards wouldn't bite down on this shit the second you saw it available.

Streaming services are learning that dropping an entire season of a show at once shrinks your fanbase. They are starting to move away from the binge-watching model toward weekly releases again.
And now that everyone is coming up with their own streaming service, we're moving back toward the traditional channel system.
The next step is for bundling services to arise. You could pay $11.99 for Netflix, $4.99 for CBS, and $5.99 for Starz. Or you could pay $20 for all three.
Then eventually we will just have cable again.

>Or you could pay $20 for all three.
Or you could pay a $107.55 for 3 years of NordVPN.

Wow, who vomited this and thought they would post this on Yea Forums, of all things?

shit, this is giving me ptsd from when I was a freshman at uni. my roommate was an aspie who did nothing but play anime porn games and eat shitty Chinese food. It got to the point where he had rows of food cartons stacked from floor to ceiling in our dorm.

Fuck's so special about posting this on Yea Forums?

the worst thing about twitch is amazon gets half the money
at least they don't ban paypal donations. I'd never donate money to amazon lmao

I know a somewhat famous Twitch streamer in real life. He is a huge faggot.

Pretty sure he feels the same about you.

Beyond the capabilities of most people and you know it.

Free Yosh

hopefully, but then we need to kill streaming without replacing it with anything

nigga please, that 100$ investment is tiny compared to the ludicrously expensive smartphones people feel like they need to buy every year

>It’s gonna be unsustainable for people to afford 7+ different services when all of those services are costing $5+ at least.
It's gonna be unsustainable for not-disney and not-amazon companies to stay afloat once people realize that as well, so it will overtake tv again once the others die off their slow death

yes

Rat faced fuck

>watch someone else have sex
mother fucker don't even act like zoomers invented porn

Zoomers didn't "invent" streaming either. I was mocking the "let's leave living life to someone else while I smugly post frogs on the internet and watch someone else stream doing shit to stimulate my brain" as a mentality
A ridicule no zoomer is even smart enough to understand to begin with, as the replies suggest itt.
