    Sucks. Still my favorite streaming service because of all the high quality science fiction shows and no ad tier.

    So far they haven’t cancelled any of the shows I’ve been super excited for either. It’s not like scamazon or netsux where they do a season and it’s awesome but oh, no! It isn’t #1 for a month on launch!… better cancel it.

    It’s still just a billionaire owned company though and likely to do what everyone else does eventually. Can’t wait for the next thing to come along and nuke ads again.

              The concern isn’t that corporations deserve protection. It’s that as thesr platforms gain notoriety, those corporations lash out and force them to cease operation, which is fundamentally inconvenient to pirates.

      I have one for music, dropout.tv, and a service that I use to fill the gap.

      If I didn’t watch stuff on dropout, I’d probably donate or keep the sub because it’s truly a great company ran by Sam Reich, and I like supporting them.

      Agreed. As much as I hate Apple and have never paid for Apple TV, they are putting out some of the best TV shows around

        I’m in the same spot.
        Never liked the way Apple does things. Never bought an Apple product. But the last few months, I’ve been considering an Apple TV sub. I’m watching 5 or 6 series, and have enjoyed several of their movies.

        I might even give up Netflix for it. Which feels strange, since my Netflix account is nearly as old as Netflix itself. Used to rip so many Netflix DVDs.

      Agreed, it has been somewhat underpriced. But I also generally prefer my plex setup, and have only had Apple One for classical music, Friday night MLB games, and F1.

      Strongly considered and almost cancelled Apple One this morning, but figured I’d hang on until the end of baseball and formula 1 seasons. This price jump changed my mind, and now cancelled.

    The irony of the company world-famous for being over-priced having the streaming service which most justifies a price increase.
