$20 to rent a movie online for 48 hours i need yall to get so real right now bc that is insane. “that’s the average cost” which is a problem!! if im paying $20 i better get the film on dvd to have and watch forever
and before i get the “what about seeing ig at the movie theater” comments
i dont have a 60 foot screen and high tech surround sound audio and fancy seats at home. i will pay $20 to watch a movie once with friends for the experience in the theater. i will absolutely not pay $20 to watch a movie on my laptop lmfao
£15/$20 is the price of a fucking DVD. That you keep. I’m not paying that much to rent fuck all, you must be joking.
Are all of you really too young to remember how it used to be before corporations stopped selling you things that became yours in perpetuity after you paid for them and started charging you rent for everything?
used to be that the reason there were so many movies/tv shows is in part because things were sold to keep on disc so in order for a production studio to keep making money they needed to make more like selling a lightbulb but now bc of streaming services and renting digital movies/tv shows they can keep making money while producing fewer things like leasing a car i fear a future where as production studios cull more and more from their libraries and continue merging into a single entity eventually we will find ourselves with 4 shows 3 movies that you pay a subscription to watch over and over and over again
