a great longer-form explanation of just how bad the residual terms are for streaming (spoiler, it's orders of magnitude less) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79p9bt3DXqE i also forgot hbo memory-holed friggin westworld because they didn't want to keep paying residuals; this poo poo's a hat-trick of fuckery affecting both the present, future, and past https://twitter.com/natums/status/1602765363480907777

give amazon some credit, there has to be at least a little bit of money-laundering to justify this https://twitter.com/sepinwall/status/1651596852142260224

we're all very shocked https://twitter.com/THR/status/1654578842944634884 quote:The Disney letter (read it in full, below) features a Q&A informing showrunners that they are “required” to perform duties that are not in line with the guidance provided by the WGA to its around 11,500 striking members.

Happy Landfill posted:https://twitter.com/JFrankensteiner/status/1661206309532848130?s=20 they lost a lot of european countries to netflix because of the insane segmentation of video available through all of these crazy services. netflix (at the time) at least felt like everyone was watching the same stuff across the world i guess the greatest irony is that europeans finally benefit from not getting the latest from the us, which means we keep the original hbo app for now kliras fucked around with this message at 19:20 on May 24, 2023 |

before hbo max came out, the bitrate on regular hbo looked like it was 3500 or something crazy. i remember doing the trial of regular hbo, and it was basically unwatchable. i think people would watch/rip the episodes when they dropped on amazon for reasons i don't even remember hbo are definitely ruining everything now (again), but the good days didn't last as long for many of us as some would have us think. and they still screwed up their 4:3 remasters kliras fucked around with this message at 11:55 on May 26, 2023 |

this strike also happens just as netflix and hbo are starting to serve ads. they need to offer advertisers some viewership data to negotiate cpm and fixed ad placements, so hopefully the unions can access that eventually

Donnerberg posted:Hell, a lot of the streaming sites even know when you don't have their stream focused, like when you're in another window or doing things on another monitor. Netflix used to temporarily lower their bitrate if their stream wasn't in focus over a longer period. the thing i'm more worried about is how netflix and others will come up with loopholes for future discussions of residuals and kpi's by saying "well aaactually, the viewer only watched 80% of the episode (by skipping the intro theme and end credits), sooo" when it comes to contractual obligations we've seen companies like facebook overcounting views, and i'm sure we might see the opposite weaponization of kpi misinfo

i think the main thing about people like mrbeast is that everyone's kind of forced to have an opinion on him because of how much the internet insists on recommending his stuff to you

...! posted:They did this with The Society and it really pissed me off. That show was much better than I expected and I was really happy that they renewed it. Netflix got me looking forward to season two and then cancelled it not long after they renewed it. netflix just seems uniquely awful in communicating any of this. on top of even promoting movies and tv shows that are actually premiering
