Tech's broken promises: Streaming is now just as expensive and confusing as cable. Ubers cost as much as taxis. And the cloud is no longer cheap. (www.businessinsider.com)

Oh, through pirating? Fair.

I just want shit to air on my television at random again.

Eh, me too, but not for 100+ dollars.

I know there's a Plex program that does this, creates simulated channels filled with randomized (or via pre-defined criteria like action movies) channels that you can tune to. Might be something for Jellyfin that's similar. Maybe not exactly what you're after and if you don't have a very large collection it won't work that well but if you have hundreds of movies or shows it could look pretty random.

Yeah, I want it to be more hand-crafted, ig, and less random.
