The future of streaming is ads

The big-name streaming services had a really good run. The likes of Netflix, Hulu, HBO Max, Disney Plus, Apple TV Plus, and all the other Pluses have spent the last decade upending the way we make and consume movies and shows and changing the whole business of Hollywood in the process. For a few (or not so few) bucks a month, more entertainment than ever is now at our fingertips. But it seems the streaming revolution has hit a bit of a wall. Most services are growing more slowly now that they’ve reached most of their possible audience. The tens of billions they’re spending on content annually seem to be producing diminishing returns. Investors are no longer sure streaming is [...]

Et de nos jours, les fonctionnalités commencent à être presque écrasantes. Il existe de nombreux producteurs de télévision célèbres dans le monde entier, mais la plupart d’entre eux se lancent dans la même chose. Mais il y en a [...]
