There was a time when almost everything was on Netflix. As a consumer, having all my content in one place for $10/mo is awesome, but according to capitalism, it is a problem that needed to be fixed.

The crazy thing is loads of people stopped pirating and paid for a streaming service that was affordable, worked, met thier needs.

Now it's all splintered with corporations wanting a piece of the pie.
