Good thing I've been getting my media from the high seas for years, never used an uber, and I don't give a shit about the cloud.

just use CloudStream

reminds me of when when banks introduced ATMs as a method to "reduce costs for the consumer" but it became a profit center, paid for by those same consumers. no consumers saved a dime

As far as Ubers, I'm happy to pay them as much as taxis in tips at least — the people driving them are hard working people who could use it.

But dang, there's lots of streaming services. The new rise of piracy is not surprising.
