Netflix to acquire Warner Bros.
-
At this rate there will only be two media companies in America next year, and then one the year after.

I was converted from a pirate to a subscriber about 10-12yrs ago... But the enshitification of everything makes me yearn for my old hat once more.

It can't be worse than what the current management has been doing for the past decade. Hopefully we will finally get a new decent Batman Arkham game.

Shoot, if you're willing to share data with the rest of us I can send a few your way - my old IT contract jobs gave me plenty of salvaged parts to work with.

I absolutely DO NOT have a mediaserver in my own home with a BDrom that can rip movies from physical media for my own personal use... I do not scour charity shops and car boot sales for music, movies and tv shows to put on there and I do not have around 70TB of storage and I am certainly not looking to expand the HDD's in the new year.

That would be so sweet, but I am also limited to my two bays NAS
I should have known better that the hoard being that lives inside of me would need more storage down the road. -

Introducing, a brand new Batman series, where Bruce joins the army and-CANCELED. But wait, here's the first in a 8 part miniseries about the Gangsters from Space Jam, who-CANCELED. We know these are trying times, so we decided to reimagine the world of-AND CANCELED. Didn't even need to tell you what the reboot was, it was just canceled _on sight_.Man, I didn't even realize I was interested in the backstory of the gangsters from Space Jam until just now. I'd like to sign up to watch all of your pilots.

Dang I had WB-Discovery being acquired by Skydance-Paramount before being acquired by Disney in the semifinals. Gonna have to redo my whole bracket now.

The initial releases are main segments in NA, but they upload the full episodes for earlier seasons if memory serves. So probably in a year or two this season's full episodes will be updated.I live in France but visited Canada recently, I was able to see the main story but not all the bits before and after. The moment I landed back in France I received notifications for the 4 episodes I missed. Not a big deal, really, but sometimes the news updates are very funny and balance out the heavier subject matter.

At this rate there will only be two media companies in America next year, and then one the year after.Thankfully a lot of people have a movie making machine in their pockets (cell phone). Content will eventually be produced by the masses, competing against the behemoth media companies. Barring that, local community theatre productions. Maybe get a cheap CD player or two and put it in the back closet and then start collecting CD's again. There is more stuff in media history to consume than there is new stuff being produced. A lot of it is better.

Put on in a theatre owned by Ticketmaster.

Let's say that Trump doesn't manage to cancel or subvert the next couple of sets of elections and that in 2029 the US has a democratic president and a democratic congress. Let's also imagine that the next president cares about monopolies and puts Lina Khan back in charge. I wonder if there's anything that they can do about decisions made by Trump's FTC. Or is Netflho just now legally in place and we're stuck with them unless the FTC can prove they're abusing their monopoly?
