Decide having an entire block of entertainment aimed at late millennials...
why must the good die young so the evil die old?
>>fail to realize the second wave of pirating is on the rise because too many streaming sites means people won't pay for all of them
this isn't talked about enough, but honestly the only times I was big on pirating were before streaming was a thing, and now I've started going back to it because half of these streaming sites don't work on every device not to mention the cost of having 10 different app subscriptions
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! why should people subscribe to a shitty site, like HBO Max when people can pirate all their shit instead. also the Looney Tunes Cartoons is a shitty cartoon, hell they don't allow guns in that cartoon.what a bunch of morons.
They'll just blame covid and carry on. We won't know if HBO Max really failed for another four years. They need to get their new shows on the service before we call it dead.
Still better then Tower of God.
I never understood why execs thought a dozen different competing streaming platforms, none of which have everything a person watches, was going to lead to all of them getting a full subscription cost and not people either:
>giving up everything that isn't their absolute favorite, losing the other companies money
>Learn to pirate and not stream from anyone at all
Only Quibi was DOA
>what a bunch of morons.
>not "what a bunch of maroons"
YA BLEW IT
HBO Max has already failed, it and it will keep failing part of the problem is that it is only available in the us and not worldwide hence piracy wins yet again.
its not that they don't understand this, its that they can't do anything else, stock holders would rather shrink the pie of streaming money while ensuring they get their 10% of it, instead of allowing other companies to dominate the streaming service.
Capitalism is literally retarded and actively seeks to destroy its own sources of revenue
no they are not.
Prior to the streaming craze, I'd only pirate over the fact it was the only way for me to reach the series I'd like to watch. But now, there are too many reasons to pirate:
>all the shows I like are on different streaming services
>I don't wanna pay 100+€ for like 8 streaming services if I only watch 8 shows total
>if you're not american, you're basically locked out of most streaming services (Hulu and HBO Max for me), thus pirating is the only way to reach them
Sometimes, I feel guilty, because I do want to support the series I like. But hey, that's the non-burger pirate way...
Yes, they are better then Tower of God, it's clear you never even seen Tower of God.
Every point you make is right. But what's also contributing to HBO Max's troubles is Roku refusing to carry it without a kickback.
that's were you are wrong I have seen Tower of God.and the Looney Tunes Cartoons are far worse.
I had been meaning to ask when I saw some CN announcements but...did EVERY single new show on CN basically go to HBO Max? It looked like absolutely nothing they announced was actually going to air on the network.
I really wonder if pirating will pick up because of all these different services. I already am at my limit with 3, can't imagine having HBO in the mix
Hi famicom
also Tower of God is anime and Looney Tunes Cartoons is a animated cartoon, so you can't really compare them with each other, anime and cartoons are vastly different from each other.
If you have a university e-mail, you can get both Prime at a reduced rate, and Hulu from a Spotify subscription. Then, just trade in Netflix for MAX.
i'm a burger and still pirate because everything is absurdly expensive over here
i'm not paying $75+ for a bunch of streaming services i won't use beyond 1 or 2 shows -- that's fucking stupid
i wish we could just pay like $5 a month to have access to 1 show from a service
>Whaaa! Muh boogieman!
Charles Solomon says otherwise.
I pirate everything outside of Jap stuff and indie stuff because fuck western conglomerates.
>supporting the pedo country cartoons
>not pirating everything and only supporting properties by purchasing associated merchandise
back to
I support the Japs precisely to piss off white people like you.
yeah well there has NEVER been a anime Looney Tunes series, so I think you are full of shit and that you are simply clueless about this.
Here's your goddamn you famicunt

I repeat...
>Whaaa! Muh boogieman!
>assuming i'm white
If you're not black, Asian, or native, you're white.
Yep. I only pay for streaming because it’s easy. This makes it not easy. Back to pirating I go.
>getting salty that you can't shit on someone who isn't white
>"b-b-but Japan is q-quality!"
>"b-but muh anime because white people bad!"
again, go back to
they all clearly state those series are animated cartoons, they are not anime you did you bother reading the description for them at all moron ?
Like I thought, Hispanic who wants to be white.
