  • The problem is exclusive rights.

    If you wanna watch 3 different shows but they are all on different platforms, then you gotta go and pay for all 3. You can’t just watch the Netflix version of Loki, or the Disney+ version of Ted Lasso.

    You mentioned monopolies but the problem is that each platform holds hundreds of monopolies, each for one specific show/movie.

    In a perfect world, there would be some sort of law or agreement against exclusive rights, where every service can show any product they bought the (non-exclusive) rights to.

    In that scenario, streaming services would have to compete by being the cheapest or offering the best service.

    But alas, this is not a perfect world

    Your friends don’t remember you embarrassing yourself nearly as much as you do.

    Your parents however, they know embarrassing stuff you did before you could even form long term memories. And they are not afraid to share it at family meet ups

    Head trauma or high amounts of alcohol ingestion can result in temporarily being unable to form new long term memories

    So if I remember something embarrassing while being shit faced, does that mean that mean that I will completely forget it?
