I am over being disappointed by streaming sites.

“I wanna watch X, let’s see if Netflix has it…”

*Opens webpage*

“Hmm… Netflix usually sucks, they probably wont have it. I’m just gonna say I’ll watch Y off my hard drive instead. But let’s still confirm that Netflix doesn’t have X…”

Next thing you know, I’m watching Y off my hard drive.

Streaming services suck so much nowdays that I already resolve myself to watching something else before I even finish checking. Gotta shield myself from disappointment. Why would you pay for each channel on a TV? Just get the hard copy at that point…

    This. I feel like watching Das Boot. Okay, it streams on Fubo. Maybe I’ll watch K-19. No, that one is on Peacock. The Hunt for Red October? No, it’s on HBO Max.

    Do they really expect me to subscribe to all those different services when I could just put it into Radarr and have it a few minutes later?
