i really hate how they call it a ‘library’, very disingenuous if it’s all on their servers and predicated on their fucking license agreements
what if real libraries had to throw away books because harpercollins got pissy. would anyone stand for it? (probably yes)
You mean like southern states banning books because they are “offensive”?
Ironically, the christian Bible is one of the most offensive books there is
I’m more worried about their definition of buy ;)
They do actually have to re-license their online audio books every so many listens. They have to pay for the same audiobook over and over.
That’s why it’s a lot better for them to lend out the CDs, a few people are coming in for that.
They exist to fuck over artists and the viewers as much as they can get away with.
I just decided I’m perfectly comfortable fucking the media companies over first.
If you want to stay truly legit, buy used physical releases. They cost less money and you could support your local record store. Movies and music on a home NAS + Plex Server are god tier.
Feels like “buy” should be in quotes
There absolutely needs to be a law that forces companies to make this abundantly clear and make the usage of “buy” illegal in those cases. It should be “rent” or “purchase temporary license.”
I will genuinely never pay for a streaming service again lmao
Can you pm me some links? Already cut Netflix looking to reduce the monthly bill.
This should be the only one you need 99% of the time
Not more than once.
