So I was listening to a Bloomberg Tech Podcast about this. Someone from some random media group actually said "consumer demand for ad supported content over netflix's usual high production value dramas is up"

For some reason, that statement was both incredibly threatening and incredibly ominous

That doesn't even make sense. The high production stuff would be ad supported too.
