- Streaming Services: Paying Monthly to Search for Something You Don’t Want
- Subject
- Subscription overload, endless scrolling and the odd defeat of paying for choice but finding nothing worth watching.
- What the piece would argue
- Streaming has made entertainment more accessible and, somehow, more tiring, especially when every service hides the good stuff behind menus and churn.
- Why it fits Bleh
- It is a familiar modern irritation with a broader point about abundance, attention and paying monthly for indecision.
- Possible opening line
- There are now more things to watch than ever, which is why I spent twenty minutes looking and gave up.
