    I hate consolidation. Except I want only a single streaming service. But other than that, I hate it.

      I want multiple streaming services that can stream almost everything so there’s competition, but still a valid reason not to just drop and switch constantly.

        Multiple streaming services that all stream from the same database so the competition isn’t what licenses they hold, but how good their UI and back-end are. This only happened in the better timeline with Harambe though…
