I think the underlying thing is, downloaders are the money launders

they are still making money for the show through awareness. The makers make money from people watching it for free, and those paying

Like the gun companies this week pretending to care, they have to be seen to be trying. I'm fairly sure it's the same with downloading. They've got to spin the bulls**t in order to keep people paying

The way I see media is, there's too much choice. I pay because I can find something to watch on netflix night after night. I very rarely approach it with the most up to date programmes as my wish list. I just flick through the genres and watch something. Same with amazon

Today's must watch will turn up on these platforms eventually
