Streaming sucks, I need to own my content. 1080p and higher download quality only.

Who the fuck says striminals?

At least one? I mean, how many do you want to use? When you set up your system, you don't need more than one.

The way this is phrased makes it sound like more than a third (60% of 69%) of millenials only ever consume media through piracy, which I find very hard to believe. What seems more likely to me is that the survey asked people if they have ever used piracy and now they're trying to make this seem like a much bigger deal through misleading phrasing.

Of course not. I'm a law abiding citizen, I'm not smart or sexy enough to commit copyright infringement.

Seriously, they make it seem like this is new. Been a pirate since the early days of Napster. Hell, was pirating DOS games on floppy in the early 90's. Video stream pirating is just the latest form, and won't be the last.

My main thing that pushes me towards being a striminal is that every service has all exclusive content.

If I wasn't too watch star trek or star wars, hello Disney+. Stranger things? Netflix. The list is long, I won't bore you with what you're probably aware of.

Moving to bring a striminal, as they say, you can watch what you want, when you want, where you want. You get everything in one place, and don't have to flip flop between services to simply see what's available.

The cost of all of the services is a problem, sure, because it's so damn costly for all of them combined. But that's not my primary factor. It's just so damned inconvenient to maintain so many disconnected accounts, and agglutinate all of the information into a sensible list of what's new or available across all services.

I just want it to be easy and they've intentionally made it not easy.

I won't comment if, or how many Linux ISOs I may or may not have.

All information should be free, everywhere, forever.

Nice

Ok but that sounds based as hell

I'm a streamennial, but I know a few streazoomers, and also few bootreams.

Strongly reccomend using Jellyfin for your media libraries. Even if you don't have a dedicated server and just want to watch on a pc, it works better than VLC.

Based striminals

100% of GenX'ers in this household.

Sorry but I'm streamennial not striminal.

Awwww, that's so cute how they side-stepped "... what they want, how they want, "; You know? That bit of it all that we can't buy their way because they won't sell it to us.

Sell full quality 4k video files, with no DRM, and I’ll never use a sketchy streaming site ever again.

I haven’t infringed on a single game that’s available on GoG

Who is "we"? I have to know who came up with this amazing addition to the English language.

Looks fake, but still funny af.

I'll start paying when they stop being racist with their region locks.

Only 69%? Nice. Thought it would be way higher though. I mean. The youngest of us are almost 30 now.

So what are Gen Xers who do this called?

They are saying that like it is a bad thing.

Bad for shareholders maybe.
