I thought Netflix’s biggest advantage was the quality/salary of its engineers.

I think that every time I wait for Paramount+ to restart after its gone black in picture on picture, and yet, I’n still on Paramount+ and not Netflix, so maybe that advantage isn’t real.

Sigh, none of the competitors are much better. Disney, who has more than enough cash to throw at streaming, is a near constant hassle for us ( after 3 or more episodes it throws an inscrutable error on Playstation ). I would drop it, but this is the only remaining streaming service and wife is not willing to drop it ( I guess until 1 it is one error per one episode ).

I keep hearing that a lot of people are switching to the illegal competitor for better service.

Eh, the beef that I have is that I am already a paying customer. Why does it seem like I am getting subpar service in terms of delivery? I know it is a tired conversation on this forum, but corporations big and small do what they can do mess with experience to eke out few more cents from customers. It almost does not matter which industry one looks at, it is the same story; the only difference is typically how egregious things get[1].
