Streaming has been the producer dream all along so we need a ‘video recorder’ to tape what we watch to watch it again and again. I am not in favour of piracy and I pay for some streaming, however, when I get ads even though I pay, I get geo restrictions even though I pay or they remove things I like an make them paid, even though I pay, I will download illegally. We really need to move to a legal way of paying the people who actually made the stuff directly and making that a valid and legal option. We need global legal options as internet and binaries are global, and I am not waiting for season 3 of blah to become available ‘in my region’ when you got me hooked on 1 & 2.

Edit; I don’t think I mean ‘producer’ here but I do not know what the word is; for books I guess publisher?
