How is the piracy scene in Australia? Can you guys torrent without VPNs?
I find the age data really interesting here. Millenials went in hard and then bailed hard.
Probably because they grew up on the high seas, then found a more legal and convenient alternative, only to see it turn to shit. Old habits die hard.
The moment we learnt how to wear the skull n bones hat, it was tattooed into our brain.
We grew up from Napster, Limewire, edonkey, mIRC bots, mega upload, torrents… The list goes on. It was intoxicating the feeling of finding the newest, more reliable, faster, better way of pirating. We never forgot. But we started living on land because it was easier.
So once the land living came with advertising, and 15 different taxes wanting a cut…
The hesitation to set sail once again never existed.
Good to see at least somebody is doing that.
Same story as everyone else… I used to have Netflix, Spotify, Disney+ and Tidal, now I only have Tidal. I have always owned a NAS and that is my main source of media consumption now. I just cant justify the $100 or so a month it costs to keep all these services and I struggle to find anything I am interested in. The worst thing about streaming services is the disruption to the movie industry… movies these days either feel like a couple of $200m+ productions or straight to streaming… there is no in between, and the straight to streaming stuff feels half cooked
You mean constantly bumping the prices for lower quality content is causing subscription numbers to go down? No way… Who could have thought that? /s
