 @29b9efc5 I used to "acquire" everything. Paid for Netflix and Disney for quite a few years now but everything has splintered so much there are sometimes shows/movies I want to watch that I don't want to sign up for another streaming service.

I think the video game industry has a much better model. I get most of what I want from Xbox Gamepass and freebies through Epic. Anything else I will buy and I'm happy to do that every now and then. 
 @29b9efc5 In 2023, gaming industry revenue is projected at $365.6 billion globally.

The annual revenue of the global film industry as of 2022 was $77 billion.

Global television market revenue amounted to around $94 billion in 2022.

Not that hard to tell who has the better model.
