Even in this poorly made comparison shot I made you can tell the difference between streaming and "self hosting"

The tradeoff kinda made sense at the dawn of streaming, when the transaction was basically trading quality for better pricing and convenience.
Nowadays? Yeaaaaah I don't know about that chief
Crazy to think that we lost all the advantages that streaming offered, kept all the disadvantages, piled on a few more disadvantages on top of that, and people went "sure that makes sense 24 bucks a month worth it bro"
At this point even paying money to pirate stuff makes sense. Like setting up a VPS with all the Servarr components and building your own private streaming service.
