It’s like their ASKING people to pirate
It’s like their litteraly begging people to pirate
Maybe now. I mean yeah they got a lot of comptetion and not the huge gobs of money from other revenues that can afford them to play the long game like Disney, Apple, Amazon or hell even Warner. But at the same time, they still seem t be leading and people predicted a big drop in subs once Disney+ came but it had very little.
Now if they can’t keep producing hits and have a couple lean years they could be in trouble. But so far people still seem to mostly care what is on their service more then the others. So I think it could survive.
DCU blocks VPNs, but most will work if you turn off encryption (I know for certain that Speedify and NordVPN do, not certain of others)
HBO Max is going to destroy the competition. Warner own 80% of media including DC, Cartoon Network, Adult Swim, TNT, Looney Toons, TBS, CNN, New Line Cinema, HBO, Cinemax, HTV, Sesame Street and many more. They also now have the streaming rights to new Friends, South Park, Big Bang Theory, Doctor Who, and Rick and Morty on top of new original content.
They also just announced they started a Warner Max label to bring 8-10 mid budget movies a year on the service.
Oh I think in all the talk of Disney+. which while clearly doing well people are realizing is not what they thought it was, that HBO MAX is the one to watch don’t get me wrong. Just don’t think that means everyone else is going out of business. This isn’t cable services or cell phones where people are only going to buy 1.
