Congrats, /tv/

You have just destroyed the film industry with your piracy. There's nothing but the lowest kind of entertainment being made now. Kino is extinct.

How do you feel now?

Fine

Piracy is fucking dead though. And not everyone wants a russian coin miner either.

I am perfectly fine with the film industry collapsing. Its run by a bunch of kikes in hollywood who want to shove feminist and leftist nonsense in to every part of every movie they make.

I literally do not give a single fuck about the film industry.
>>
>>87677579
It's called evolution.
Technology has progressed such that digital filmmaking is no longer profitable.

The era of playwrights came and went, as did the era of opera, and now film, it seems.
Another form of entertainment will pick up the slack if these guys don't.

Cool. Maybe movies will be so shit by then that people will start picking up their own cameras and making movies for the art of it instead of the profit. By then (((they))) will have a different money making scheme. Or they will just make chinese movies since they get executed for piracy. Or maybe they will focus on the theater-going experience to sell their movies, and theaters won't sell popcorn for 8 dollars a handful. Fuck movies

Wherever ease of access improves and prices drop (Netflix - subscription model with large number of shows/films) piracy drops too.

$15, or even $50 a month for 2/3 subscription services is absolutely nothing for anyone with a job.

It is about convenience. But having a wall of content that you can scroll through and (legally) view for very little money is exactly what your average consumer wants. Piracy increases when they get too expensive, or content is split between too many. Right now they have the right balance to convince most people to pay rather than pirate.

Torrents have zero impact on movies. Literally none at all. The people who torrent movies were never going to go and see those movies in the theater in the first place.

Good. Movies will have to be pre-financed by the likes of kike-starter which will increase the direct control people have over content and increase the number of niche movies produced instead of this one size fits all tactic Hollyjew is employing.

Hollywood is dying. Film making is not dying.

Once the (((industry))) is dead we can finally enjoy a slew of independent films made by artists with a vision, like Die Hard, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Deadpool.

take a count of how many unique web pages(discounting blogs and clickbait article websites) you have visited in the past year, the answer might surprise you.

I don't care, I still have millions of movies already released that I can download and watch anytime I want. I never understood why people feel they can only watch new things and not old ones that haven't seen.

The studios are too greedy. Band under one platform and charge a reasonable price per episode/movie and people would be more open to paying

then again it's pretty clear the users don't acknowledge any authority to stop them from pirating and there's no enforcement. Maybe everything is public domain.

netflix will start going under, get bought out by some big conglomorate for its brand. They'll push the brand for another 10-15 years and by then it'll be a drag and they'll fuck with their image until its unrecognizable and gets retired.

>>87678999
>5.99 million was spend on marketing the god awful mess transformers the last knight

Hate to break it to you, but a medium sized movie can spend upwards of 40 million on Advertising, a large movie can double that. Transformers would have spent close to 80 mil on Advertising alone as marketing is costly as fuck now.

It's one of the reasons why a costly movie can make serious bank, yet still fall short and be considered a flop. The amount they spend on advertising is costing about 1/2 that of what they spent on the film itself.
>>
>>87677579
That's a nice prediction.

>kikes keep making shit, so I pirate
>kikes get no shekels
>kikes decide to stop making shit, and go back to making good, well thought-out, creative content

See, I can do it too.
>>
>>87679147
Or just get a VPN, it's a lot cheaper.
>>
>>87679249
You need halfway decent CPU usage for video transcoding for plex for example.

Also I use the server to host a couple of websites and a couple game servers as well, so I dont mind paying a bit more and getting 16gb ram and stuff.
>>
>>87679299
VPN is still better, cheaper in the long run too. Christ you can get 2 years from NordVPN for $75, and it's no logging, encrypted, has onion nodes, and allows multi connections.
>>
>>87679330
Depends on how you're using it. VPNs give you pretty shit CPU and RAM most of the time and not customizable enough for my taste.

I am at a constant usage of about 8GB ram or so with all the stuff I run on my server.

Getting 4TB space, 16gb ram and a good processor you know you're using only for yourself at all times is worth the price difference to me.
>>
>>87679451
What? A VPN doesn't give you shit other than a locational IP. You don't get ram or a CPU out it. It just allows you to use a different IP. That way you don't get letters from your ISP because they can no longer tell what you're downloading.
>>
>>87679512
Exactly, a VPN and a dedi server are two completely different things, so why would a VPN be an alternative to a proper dedicated server.
>>
>>87679562
Because it's cheaper, and accomplishes the same end goals. Watching shit without getting in shit.
>>
>>87679593
>accomplishes the same end goals

Not really, if I need to run game servers and websites 24/7, and not host anything on my pc at all. Otherwise I'd have to leave my pc running to be able to watch stuff on plex on my TV either way.
>>
>>87678940
>that's what butthurt actually believe

cry more
>>
>>87679645
>Otherwise I'd have to leave my pc running to be able to watch stuff on plex on my TV either way.

Not to mention if you're hosting Plex for your whole family your connection would go to shit whenever your asshole little brother feels like watching some shit show and everyone would be leeching off your CPU at all times.

Running plex on your own pc would be pretty shit, dont listen to VPN goy.
>>
>>87679718
What kind of shitty computer do you have? I only have an i7 and 16 gig of ram and can easily have someone watch a show off my computer while I'm also watching a show or playing a game.
>>
>>87679770
The problem is he'd have to always be running 8gb+ ram of game servers and other hosting software on top of what you may run for yourself and having to be sure you never ever restart your PC, plus people will make you lag because of have 20+ people playing on servers plus family watching shows and so on. Plus having all those programs open at all times is simply annoying.

Its fine if you dont need a dedi personally bruv, but its extremely more convenient not to have to depend on your PC at all, and 20 bucks a month for all that isnt too bad.
