For a blissful few years, the streaming shows meant subscribing to Netflix. Some would also use Amazon Video, because, why not? They were already paying for it with Amazon Prime. But then a lot of the media companies decided that they also need to get into the streaming game for those sweet, sweet subscription fees. So now we have Hulu, Disney+, AppleTV+, and HBO Now. This doesn’t include the “TV” services such as Sling and YoutubeTV. And coming soon is NBC’s horribly named Peacock (which, if they want to do it right, they need to get Katy Perry onboard for the song). All of these services are doing one thing, making piracy great again.
