But how do you actually find content that you like?Recommendations from friends. Reviews by trusted critics. The same ways we've always found other things we like really.
I can't imagine how wasteful it would be to have to buy all these bad shows instead of just streaming them.
I have a significant disc collection of movies and TV shows I enjoy. I have almost nothing I haven't rewatched at least once and enjoyed again and/or lent to friends or family at some point for them to enjoy as well. I don't really know how that happened but I can tell you that almost none of those discs were bought as new releases other than big names that I was already fairly sure I'd enjoy or sequels/spin-offs of things I'd previously enjoyed.
