Who the fuck pays for more than one at a time anyway, I don't mind fragmentation because I have no loyalty to one service and will move to one to watch it's stuff, then move when i get bored of what it has to offer. Competition is always good. We shouldn't have monopolies in any industry, including streaming

Ditto.

Canceling cable used to be, at the very least, a long, phone call that alternated between stretches of hold music dulling the senses and combative sales technique verbal jousting. Canceling a streaming service... I don't think that has ever taken me more than four minutes of finding a webpage and clicking. The collective consciousness is in danger of forgetting/underplaying just how far we have come on this.

If pirating ever takes less than four minutes every other month, I guess it will have reached convenience parity. But it certainly wasn't that back when I was in that game. And I really, really doubt it is now.

This, but more like from 2010 to 2012. Streaming was only great for a very brief moment imo. It was pretty obvious, pretty early on that every studio wanted to create their own streaming service. It became easier to automate the downloading and have everything located in one spot real fast.
