For me, it's the fact that every major platform, be it streaming services or the major movie studios (sometimes the same thing), is owned and controlled by greedy, unethical people seeking short term, personal profit and actively working against the best interests of their content creators and society as a whole.

If it's free, I can bypass ads, and I can donate directly to the creators... that's preferable.

I’ll say now that Paramount (Larry Ellison and his sock puppet of a son David) are going to now own WB, I’ve never felt more sympathetic to media piracy.

Paramount is one I am having the hardest time with dropping because I love Star Trek so much. They are my comfort shows that I can watch over and over and over again without getting bored. So I’ve been borrowing the Blu-rays of seasons from my local library, ripping the discs, and I’m setting it up to watch on my living room tv.

All this nonsense Ellison/Paramount has been up to is so gross.

Same

I’m waiting for garage sale season to see if I can buy them without paying paramount any money.

Been feeling this way too. I was looking forward to seeing what James Gunn does with DC. Now I hope he fails, or at least I won’t be paying to watch his movies and shows.
