You guys still stream? I buy DVDs. Blu-Rays. Why are you worrying about where you can watch The Office when the complete DVD set is $10? That's **less** than one month subscription to any of these services and you **OWN** it. And guess what - if you play it so much that you're sick of it - **YOU CAN SELL IT** Stop paying for things that you'll never get to own and buy a $35 IKEA shelf and fill it with physical media.

Porn is the secret for the success of a few products, like Blu Rays and VHS.

---

Time to stock up on box sets and blu rays! We thought cable was expensive. Just wait.

---

Most of the shows are on dvd/blu-ray and probably cheap

---

You should consider that porn won the VHS vs Betamax war, the HDDVD vs Blu-ray war, and made the internet.

This is a battle between big tobacco and all the independents that came out when vaping started to get big. (And Chinese suppliers ) They took a huge market share away from a nicotine addicted , captured market . All the propaganda about marketing to kids with candy and fruit flavors came from the traditional tobacco industry to try to shut them down so they could get their "e-cigarette products out . The Texas laws are crafted and pushed by traditional tobacco lobby and are the model they are pushing for the whole country . The ones they are still allowed to sell - mostly in convenience stores are the tobacco /menthol flavored ones that are made by Juul and Vuse (R.J Reynolds). Blu(Imperial Brands/Fontem Ventures). and NJOY (Altria/Phillip Morris ). Bloomberg Philanthropies has invested over $1.6 billion in anti-vaping campaigns around the world - often pushing consumers back to regular cigarettes in countries like India , Vietnam , Mexico, and the Philippines . While there are, as of yet , no direct evidence linking R.J Reynolds and Phillip Morris to Bloomberg Philanthropies , the effect the propaganda has had on returning market share to them is massive.
