This is a hot load of shit.

My household purchased a yearly subscription to Crave as it contained all the Star Trek content and a bunch of HBO shows that my wife likes.

Removing this content will just mean my Plex server will go brrr a little more. I’m slightly inconvenienced, and Paramount+ and Crave just lost another subscriber. Big brain move by these services.

How did Paramount+ lose a subscriber in this scenario?

They lose a potential subscriber in us, and Crave loses a return subscriber

If Paramount+ acquiring the rights to shows that you like ensures that you’ll never be a subscriber, I suspect that potential was never really there…

They were getting royalties from @PerogiBoy through his content provider. Not anymore. It’s not rocket surgery. Brain science. You get it.

Option A had everything in one place (they weren’t just after Trek) for a single cost. Splitting platforms and increasing user costs while decreasing user convenience has now cost them income.
