Comment on The show I was watching went from "Free" to "Paid" *while I was watching it*

This happened after the market plummeted for music sales. TV and movies are still in the stage where everyone is competing with content by having exclusives while their services suck dick with few features, horrible UX, and ads. Im sure at some point they’ll go the route of music and games where youre not forced to sign up to a specific service to see a specific show, but who knows when that’ll happen.

This was reality when Netflix was the only streaming service. We had that already and it devolved into what we have now

It was still the same back then, it was just done via network TV channels instead of streaming channels.
