My issue is that Disney should then not have its own streaming platform, and that, yeah, Netflix shouldn't make its own shows

Now as for the videogame comparison, I've heard it before, but developing for different consoles is not the same. Making a game for switch hardware, and for xbox hardware requires multiple versions of the game. You don't film multiple versions of a movie for different platforms. It's part of why I don't think all games should be available on all platforms. I believe that they shouldn't have to be on all platforms, and that it should be up to developers which consoles to make games for, but yeah, that means that there are gonna be exclusivity deals. Would be nice to avoid, so that if Fromsoft decides to make BB2, they have the free reign to make it for PC, but my point is that game development is more complicated than movie streaming

Anyway, yeah, I think Disney+ can go fuck itself right back from the muck it crawled out of, and that Netflix has to stop making its own stuff (Or allow competitors to use it)
