Consumers are paying more than ever for streaming TV each month and analysts say there’s no reason for the companies to stop raising prices::Finding new subscribers in a saturated streaming video market isn't easy. And with legacy media companies desperate to recoup revenue declines in their linear TV businesses, the cost of your monthly plan is likely to keep rising.

I'm kind of amazed how my Gen Z buddies are so adamantly against pirating. They think the cops will bust down their door, literally.

As a gen z kiddo, like half of the software on my pc and 90% of my movies are pirated lmao.

I mean i’ve met a lot of millenials like that too. I’m not exactly sure where it stems from

Noobs using public trackers then getting scary letters from their ISP.

A few of mine got cease and desist orders from their ISP, one got two… so that’s why they’re against it. Some now do VPN, some just hop streaming services. Some just stopped watching as much stuff because: life.
