Comment Could this benefit physical media advancement? (Score 1) 134

I noticed that at the bottom of the article the reason behind this is basically to adopt technologies to improve streaming services. Could this movement also be used to bring in new royalty free physical media? Call me a tin foil hat lover but I do not like the fact that everything is going streaming. People are so dependant on having to move nothing more than a couple fingers for entertainment. Well, I ask you good Sir and Madam what are you going to do when streaming services shut down? In (15)years when majority of people look at physical media like a homeless person. Let's say one day taps run dry on streaming services. (Oh no cataclysmic internet outage) Guess what? All those great tv shows and movies? Lost to your and everyone elses finger tips. As long as there is power and my VHS doesn't eat my tapes - I will always be able to show what life was like before streaming ended the entertainment industry. ;)

I think researches need to do a little thinking and this would not be much of a surprise. Why do millennials not know which networks tv shows come from but know Netflix? Uhh maybe because at the start of every episode on a Netflix series. There is a big fucking Netflix that smacks you in the face. All other tv shows on regular cable networks do not pop up their network name directly embedded into the show. Are people getting dumber or they just not paying attention?
