Duncan Bell is running out of stream
There is definitely such a thing as too much choice when it comes to streaming services
There’s no doubt that streaming services have revolutionised television. The ability to watch, in theory, any TV show or movie immediately is an incredible thing, and the original content made by the likes of Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime et al has made TV shows feel universal in a way they haven’t for decades. It’s like when there were only four channels, so practically everyone watched the hot shows.
So yes, streaming is a marvellous thing, but for me there are a few tiny flaws. Just little things such as: I don’t like the original content, the cost is ridiculous and the amount of choice becomes actively oppressive. Just little things.
