What do you think about streaming services which make a subscription a condition for viewing certain content?

Like, you can only watch certain tv shows if you've subscribed to their service, while you actually subscribed to some other service already.

Well, I’m all for it, coz how else will the artists be paid for their talents?

@Vivaci the hosting service party could pay for the license including this foreign content to their own service.

@scooogy and who is going to pay them if they don't require a subscription?

@NerdyPotato the costumer's hosting service party.

@scooogy with what money? They can't pay anything without income.

@NerdyPotato now that's media economics

@scooogy exactly! Customers pay a subscription to their provider so the provider can buy content.
