Is streaming really bad

>>149151053 (OP)
Streaming killed cartoons

>>149151053 (OP)
Piracy > everything else

>>149151053 (OP)
It is certainly much more convenient, but things getting more convenient for the consumer not always translates to something necessarily good for the creator of the content.

This applies to any product: Movies, cartoons, and even art in general, now with AI 'art' and all. The general public will almost always go for whatever is most convenient for them.

I thought it was 10 hours of gumball that did

>>149151053 (OP)
It is now with the push for longer and more frequent ads

>>149151053 (OP)
Maybe? But the internet and smartphones would have eventually killed western animation as we know it, regardless

>>149151341
That was the symptom. Kids caring less about non-electronic toys was the disease

>>149151218
this is your eternity theif

>streaming is good because...I can my watch my shows without commercials
>ads get thrown in anyway
>you could be watching an old show and have it be stripped away from without warning
I'm not surprised the Daily Wire is this out of touch with the plebs.

I'm going to burn in hell for eternity for watching fansubbed anime and tokusatsu. There is no saving me. I am fucked.

>>149151694
Same. Fansubs are often translated better and with more care. Official subs often don't even translate the lyrics, while some fansubs even make it karaoke style, I admire the dedication

>>149151053 (OP)
Pirating is the optimal experience, so I don't give a shit about the "official" way media is sold.

I’m still mad that the only good way to watch DBZ is to use a fan version that is like 1 TB

>>149151821
DBZ is boring trash

>>149151608
I'll just download a cracked version of Heaven

>>149151053 (OP)
And now streaming does all that shit including pulling your show and if you missed it, you missed it.

>>149152291
Really? Never hear about it

>>149151182
It was the Boston bombings

Streaming is a way more predatory industry than I hear people mention. It's like a devils contract where they'll keep charging you for months and months unless you go out of your way to cancel your subscription. And it can be really tedious to try and break free from the chains they put you in.
At least it's not as bad as the gaming industry with something like PlayStation Plus.

Glad I'm not a gullible westoid drone and I've been pirating every single thing my entire life.

>>149151053 (OP)
Streaming only became mainstream after they realized people want to watch movies on the internet. Netflix was fine back in 2015 but it has now lost their cash cows (squidward games was ok tho)

I just prefer to own everything instead of virtually rent it.

Lily Chip has fat ass energy.

>>149151053 (OP)
Why can't conservatives into cartoons?

>>149151182
Most shows are written for retards and are meant to be binged.

Wow. Its not like Streaming Services dont have Ads and on top of that entire tiers where you pay for less ads only thats not the case either OH WAIT

Typical fucking boomers. Theyre going to watch Ad's. The jews who make streaming services have decided its not enough they have your subscription they must have MORE MONEY

>>149153506
My 60 year old father in law actually likes the ads.
He watches cable TV because the commercials give him time to "decompress" from what he's watching.

>>149153541
Why are boomers so retarded?

>>149151053 (OP)
Yes
Today I shall remind them

>>149153506
That's where you're wrong. Normalfags actually pay for the service & get ads either way. That was Hulu's business model.

It gives the publisher power to change it remove the series whenever they want. And we are already starting to see old shows being edited to remove music tracks they don't want to pay royalties to use.

>>149153004
better than elio

>>149151831
No it's not

>>149155160
Yes it is. Just filler and perpetual power creep. Shit is as lame and boring as western capeshit

>>149155298
Watch kai

>>149155581
Unironically this, DBZ’s original funimation dub was a mistake.

>>149151053 (OP)
fake bandit kinda hot

>>149151053 (OP)
Despite it's initial benefits, yes. Streaming provides a firsthand look at the choice overload as well as the problem that comes from renting your media from a big company. With all the choices in the world you'd think that you'd have a better time picking the right show but that's actually not the case. Give a man the world and he'll search endless trying to find the right series but if you give him a curated selection he can just sit there and watch. More choices =/= inherently more enjoyment just more time wasted waying your options.
It also means that whatever programing is at the whims of exec. Instead of "we own this so it can air on the network whenever" it very much depends on what upper management want on the streaming platform and what they don't. This especially sucks for Cartoons because it's clear people like Zazla don't value animation at all and as a result the actual selection of these shows that they own on their own streaming platform is embarrassing.

Context?

>pretending that reruns, syndication, vcrs, and box-sets didn't exist
Don't break your neck trying to nail yourself to that cross, old man.

>>149156578
The most common version of DBZ in official distribution is based on the dogshit Orange Box DVD release from the 2000s which butchered the picture and sound in ways that boggle the mind.

>>149155298
Yeah, OG Dragon Ball was better.

They can and do, you just rarely ever know it.

It ultimately results in shows being treated as passing fads rather than something you grew attached to over time and thus become part of a routine in your house. Shows don't really last anymore in cultural zeitgeist.
