"Stronger than ever"... I still feel like the golden age of piracy is long lost

Put out more good shows/movies, that way I don't feel like I'm being taken for a $15 ride every month for 1 decent show and maybe 1 movie.

My biggest question is despite how expensive Disney+ is and their huge subscriber base, how are they not profitable? Nebula is a fraction of the price without any ads and plenty of originals and is quite profitable despite having under 1 million subs.

I am partial to Kodi, Seren and real-debrid.

I never subscribed to streaming services.

I always used free streaming sites like fmovies or downloaded stuff I really liked.
