This.
I'm a 60-year-old (Do I win a kewpie doll?), and have the tech chops to pirate, but I don't want to.
It's important for me to live a life of Personal Integrity. That stance gets a lot of chuckles with this crowd, but it's of critical importance, in my life.
I'm fortunate, in being able to afford streaming services, but find the profusion and variety to be a mess.
I like AppleTV Channels, and the way that the AppleTV Watch Now app aggregates the apps. Amazon has something similar, that my wife uses.
Unfortunately, it looks like these knuckleheads can't agree on common licensing models. I don't want the "You can have any color you want, as long as it's black." approach of cable bundlers, but I also don't like the myriad ways of subscribing, or, quite frankly, the ever-changing prices.

They need to get their shit together.
