I still don't understand why services don't attempt to bundle more. All my media is pirated, which conveniently ends up in a single app.

I'd probably consider a $10-15/AUD streaming service if it included all the music, movies and party-music-video playlists I need /in one app/. It'd be a pretty tactical move to bundle that all into a decent internet plan, too.

But judging by the TV shows my sickchill server and automatically nabs and pushes to my plex server my tastes would require 4-5 separate services and be in the range of $40-60/month, so I guess I'll keep doing what I currently do.

I don't imagine $15 for all that is enough to keep producing content, they'll happily lose you to piracy in the hopes of keeping and retaining a larger audience who will pay.

Why would any company lose multiples of what you pay them when you’ll easily start pirating anyway? You’re not who they are after.
