I am over being disappointed by streaming sites.

“I wanna watch X, let’s see if Netflix has it…”

*Opens webpage*

“Hmm… Netflix usually sucks, they probably wont have it. I’m just gonna say I’ll watch Y off my hard drive instead. But let’s still confirm that Netflix doesn’t have X…”

Next thing you know, I’m watching Y off my hard drive.

Streaming services suck so much nowdays that I already resolve myself to watching something else before I even finish checking. Gotta shield myself from disappointment. Why would you pay for each channel on a TV? Just get the hard copy at that point…

    The quality is often terrible too. I’ve literally been watching Netflix and the pixellation/stuttering has been so bad that I’ve shut off the film, spent 2 minutes downloading it, then just carried on watching the downloaded version from where I left off.
