The cost of cable where I can choose what I want to watch when I want to watch it. Whereas before I had to hope that the programming directors for the different channels picked something somewhere worth watching when I turned on the tube.

Now, you only have to hope whatever show you want to watch is on any of the services you are subscribed to, and won't be pulled before you finish it.

Yes that's true too. It's still better than cable. I had access to even less content back then compared to now.

I use this to find what I want to watch when I have something specific that I'm looking for: https://www.justwatch.com/

I also think people should be pirates.

But streaming, at the same cost as cable, is much better than the decades of cable I remember before streaming actually became a real competitor.
