Tech’s broken promises: Streaming is now just as expensive and confusing as cable. Ubers cost as much as taxis. And the cloud is no longer cheap::Some tech is getting pricier and looking a lot like the older services it was supposed to beat. From video streaming to ride-hailing and cloud computing.
Streaming is still much cheaper than cable.
Assuming netflix vs cable in my xountry… Yeah I know which one has better value.
That’s the thing though, it’s not Netflix vs cable anymore. It’s Netflix + Disney + Prime + whatever other streaming services have the shit you actually want to watch. And when you add it up, it’s just like cable packages. The only advantage is it’s all on demand.
Plus ad free for the most part… For now at least.
If you add them all up, it’s still cheaper than cable. They either need to create another service or two or raise prices like 20% more before it goes over that amount.
