This is so strange to me. I guess people enjoy being ripped off and getting less and less value for their money.

Agreed. I'm not really one for much TV or movies anymore, though when I am, I know exactly what I want to watch. I also tend to watch things I've already seen before as background while I'm doing something else. But I know there are plenty of people that when they get home, they just want to zone out, and that mindless browsing, plus content they've never seen before available instantly certainly could have that appeal.
