Half of them aren’t in China though. It’s dropshippers, so you still get your cheap death traps, but you get them in a few days, Amazon get their enormous cut, and they get to take no responsibility when it burns your house down.
Shit, most of Amazon is that as well.
And the product thumbnails that all look like sex toys.
Yeah, it’s the reason I cancelled Amazon the day they announced that, while Netflix shambles on.
If they haven’t been doing so for at least a decade, I’m sure their shareholders will want to know why not.
You’d think so, but who do you think pays huge sums of money every year to be allowed to sell death traps to the public?
But of course. If artists want to fight for their rights, they better get their own lawyers.
I don’t often go for the full 4K Blu-ray Remux releases, since they’re massive and I can’t really tell the difference over a 10-15GB rip, at least visually. Just a webrip is fine, depending on the source. Plus even my nVidia Shield Pro struggles with them at times.
Yeah, there’s no real costs, because in this case it’s a cost of “lost opportunity” in advertising.
As a rich westerner, your eyeballs are worth more than some rickshaw driver in deepest darkest India, because you have more money to fritter away on nonsense.

It’s been mostly marketing bollocks since forever.
I’d imagine 60 million dollars to google is like 60 cents to most of us.
Torrenting was blocked on it anyway, as far as I could tell.
If five people can maintain a service bigger than all those combined, then the big streamers need to buck their fucking ideas up.
More like how all the music streaming services work. All got pretty much the same content, just different quality and prices.
The whole “but what about the one journey a year you make that’s outside the normal battery range?” is such an obvious fossil fuel industry boondoggle. It’s up there with “but what about that one time you had to move a fridge?” when convincing people that a Ford F150 is a normal sized family car.
For the same reason they include spelling errors in their emails, it certainly helps when only their dumbest victims get past the initial pitch.
To do:
Cheaper headset
Actual controllers
Make it work with PCs
Right wingers and authoritarians get mixed up a lot.
Smart switch in the UK is awkward because we have no neutral wire in the wall switches.
