So doesn’t Microsoft Azure offer the same things? Or Google Cloud?

What if I only watch movies and TV shows made before 2020?

Damn Amazon, controlling what I watch! Last week I tried to order the second full season of Maverick. Sold out! Amazon is going to be the gatekeeper on the new hollywierd trash I’m looking to watch, yeah right.

Amazon does not control anything I watch. I don’t “do” Television. I have a whole plethora of my families favorite movies on DVD, CD and VHS, and that is what we watch.

Amazon can go pound sand.

This is why I keep trying to drum it into the heads of friends and family, if you can’t physically hold it, you may never be able to watch it again. DVD or digital files, great, streaming? Not so much.

No they don’t. I don’t watch anything other than my politically incorrect DVD collection.

“And all of this plays together, making it impossible to run a streaming service or movie company without paying Amazon. “

Except they can move to Microsoft cloud services whenever they want to. Or Oracle. Or IBM. etc.
