Heck, let me take your logic a second….based on what you’re saying about intellectual property, are we paying this website (Big Brother Network) to come to their website, read their articles & post on these decision boards? Let me guess….you are gonna claim that is completely different.īB Canada is shown on Global Network, a Canadian Company. Like I said in my last posting, if it was an optional donation/sponsorship thing that would be different but changing just to access content on a website isn’t right. Putting it in a different context though, if I subscribe to HBO or Showtime (well, actually Showtime is included in the cable package I have but I know it isn’t always) would I also have to pay even more to go to those network’s website(s) too? Because if someone had to pay a monthly subscription rate of those networks would they also have to pay even more for the website content which is actually paying twice for the same exact thing? Or are you going to tell me that’s completely different? Also, as I had already said before, I already pay for cable (with PPV being considered a part of cable) & internet so I should not have to also pay to watch content on websites. Include something like a website address?Īs I said before, buying a book or going to a movie is much different than watching videos online. You seem to have a very closed mind on this and it’s hard to believe you don’t understand there are people working and expenses incurred to make the world go round. It’s not a room full of monkeys with magical cameras that run on rainbows and unicorn tears. Now since all that other CBS content is included you’re paying for access to any of it whether you use all of it or not (ie. On top of that you’re paying for licensing of content. These things would not exist if not for consumers on the other end receiving it. Then you’ve got the costs for sending that data out which requires lots of hardware and consumes bandwidth. If there weren’t Live Feeds do you really think CBS would still have a team curating the camera Feeds to put the right content out there, someone to monitor the censoring, and all the rest of the team involved. You are paying for the work done & resources used to provide something that doesn’t exist outside the need for streaming the Feeds.
