Yesterday I watched Spain - Belgium on a live stream on Prime Video. The same stream was available on Netflix and YouTube.
It was like live TV, but properly enshitified. Instead of professional journalists and commenters, you get streamers reacting to the game, improper comments, like and subscribe notices, publicity every time the ball stops, paid viewer comments overlayed on the broadcast. A complete shitstorm.
I realized that this is what the future of live TV looks like. So I think I’m done with it.

Sounds like tv from the outer worlds and cyberpunk 2077
…Wow.
“What if we took early 2000s cable, and added everything bad about YouTube and Twitch to it?”
I don’t have local live TV channels so I hooked up a coax antenna to my TV and I got the local Fox station so I watched it on there. Free TV!
