    This guy’s first problem is watching movies on his cable provider’s on-demand service. On-demand has been crap since its inception.

    And then:

    We are now at the point in the history of show business where a bad experience is free and a decent one costs extra.

    This is literally how it’s always been. And this the crux of this dude’s issues. He’s not willing to pay for content and is using freeware and crapware to watch movies. You can’t complain about a bad service if you’re not paying for it.

    He wants the solution? Ditch cable, buy movies and TV shows or pay for streaming services without ads. It’s really that simple.

      I would say streaming services are worse then sailing these days, shitty quality, unusable offline play,… And buying movies isn’t easy too, unless you want to buy BluRay discs most of online places will only lend you a licence to watch the content until they decide to remove it, viz Sony.
