The team is trying to make it cheap enough so it will be more efficient if people pay it rather than pirate it.
I can pay but, not for every streaming service out there as I like to watch the good content, no matter which streaming service provide it. What's the last resort either I pay for every service which is not feasible for me or to pirate the content which of course comes for free.
To be honest, I don't really think any streaming service can be more efficient than pirating, because it comes for free and there is a looot of content. But there are a lot of people who would pay for good content, a reasonable amount, like pynex said, but there's simply nothing of the kind. I personally like HBO, they have great content, but it's pretty expensive where I'm from and I'm not ready to pay that kind of money for 3 or 4 tv channels and they don't have pay per view system.
Most pirate streaming sites are annoying in my eyes, with thousands of pop ups, instable download rates, sometimes you need to search forever for a working link etc pp. I would really appreciate if you could buy just specific the stuff you want to watch, not more, not less.
I think dev team has enough quality to decide which one is the best alternative membership option, monthly subsciption, pay by view or etc.
It will be pay for view.
