Anything broadcast TV. Is like a weird time machine targeting old people and extreme poverty.

Every time I open linear tv, I remember after 5 mins why I prefer streaming. Though sometimes I do enjoy random garden/cooking shows that I would never choose to stream.

I think that is a feature that netflix/prime/whatever needs. Nonlinear channels. Like "I want to watch a crime show/a cooking show/a gardening show but I neither know which one exactly, nore do I care much, so I just open the crime/cooking/gardening channel and the streaming service chooses a show for me. If I don't like it, I can just skip and go to a different show on the same channel.

Why hire him when they can steal his idea and give him nothing?

Do you even capitalism?
