Oh, there's definitely a market for it. Netflix, Amazon etc. pay big fees for the A-list movies they show which means they can't just offer the full library of "decent" quality film making for ever, even if the licence-holders let them do that, which they don't. That means they have to take what they can get at as low a price as possible simply to fill their lists up. It explains the upsurge of in-house film and TV series making which would have been unthinkable a decade ago when the prevailing management wisdom was always to stick to core business. It also explains why around 45% of all the offerings online are now foreign language. never trust a man in a blue trench coat, never drive a car when you're dead |
