I used to think this was unlikely to happen, and didn't like how fragmented streaming services were... And I don't watch enough TVs/movies to justify one or more subscription services.

So I'd just buy everything on YouTube. Figured I'd only buy it once so I paid extra for the 1080p. Then they decided to stop supporting anything over 480p on browsers that aren't Safari. Watching 480p movies is a joke.

Apparently you're only allowed 720p/1080p on phones/tablets (lol at watching a movie that small), smart TVs (why would I own a TV with this little TV consumption) or Safari (lol Macs).

I don't even know what to do at this point. Go back to collecting DVDs? Think I'm just done watching movies.

I sail the seas, but I purchase 4K discs for any repeat watchers.
