25. There Are Too Many Subscription Services To Be Wrong About
It's almost as if someone asked "what if we turned decision paralysis into a business model?".
Remember cable TV? Remember wanting to be able to watch a handful of channels but getting saddled with 200+ of them, most of them full of absolute garbage, because cable companies would only sell you a "plan"? Oh, and remember when rewatching something several times was a thing?
Well, Luciano and Matt certainly do. And today, they've decided to talk about it, and how the prospect of being in control over what you watch and what you sign up (and pay) for ended up biting us consumers in our collective asses.
Oh yeah, I guess they talked about some other kinds of subscription services as well. Well, they tried.
