It’s like companies actively want me to cancel my subscriptions and sail the high seas…
- I made the switch, I set up a media server running jellyfin, now I have access to all the star trek I want
- I just canceled Max because we are primarily watching Star Trek currently, and everything was on Paramount.
  
  Shenanigans
  
  Stremio+Torrentio+Real-Debrid, my friend. Take your sanity back.
  
  Edit: you can even use it on your high end entertainment center with a Fire Stick HD, Chromecast HD, Nvidia Shield, or a media center PC if you want to spend the extra money and time for one. But any of the first options work fine and are very affordable.
- AVAST.
“The place to watch Star Trek” didn’t last very long.

As Steam says, the competition is not price, it's convenience. You can be expensive, but you better be convenient
- The MPAA was like "Nah, we want to be both expensive and inconvenient!"
Is this some joke I’m too yo ho ho to understand?
- All movies have moved from Plex to Plex
  
  All movies have moved from Plex to ~~Plex~~ Jellyfin
  
  interPLEXing ~~beacon~~ server
  
  Someone more clever than me can find a joke there, I'm sure!
- For me the joke is that there were any Star Trek fans who'd consider anything but torrenting (though I'll admit ed2k is still not finally dead, and Fopnu is a usable filesharing tool, albeit proprietary).
  
  I watch Lower Decks and Strange New Worlds on Paramount+ only because I want them to keep getting made
  
  The easiest way to stop piracy is not by putting antipiracy technology to work. It's by giving those people a service that's better than what they're receiving from the pirates

Orion it.
Good thing I bought them all on a dvd 5 pack years ago! I’m going back to buying physical media, and if I can’t: 🏴‍☠️⚓️
- Yeah. Getting out of physical media now, as every streaming service is hitting peak enshittification, is such a wild choice for Best Buy to be making, it has to have been handed to them by people trying to keep people on streaming. Now is the time to be making a killing in physical media.
This why ownership is key. They can't take my disks.
- I don't care 'cause I'm still free You can't take the sky from me
  
  ...wrong show
- Yet! I'm sure they're kicking around the idea of buying a new law enabling them to break into your house, take pictures of you sleeping, and then steal your DVDs.
  
  You get arrested and the turned over to Paramount for questioning
- Bought all the movies for this reason last year!
  
  Yarrrrrr
  
  I bought them more than a century ago. The DVDs start to fade, some of my DS9 DVDs are. I had to go to Paramount+ to resume watching. I wonder in which shape my Star Trek movie DVDs will be when I rewatch them.
  
  Btw., the stream versions don't have Dolby Surround. Is this the same for the movies. Yet another reason to have that DVDs.
keep switching where availability of movies and shows are on streaming platforms while also ending selling physical media....
- Hasn't Paramount actually been really good at selling physical media? There are literally 4K steelbooks for Star Trek: Strange New Worlds
  
  They always have been good with that, I have most of the Star Trek that I watch on physical media, especially if there's steelbooks! Maybe there's been something announced that I haven't seen though. Or they could just be talking about physical media in general.
  
  The physical media merchandising team seems to be excellent.
  
  Fans really showed up to buy the Prodigy DVDs, but they also had really put in the effort to promote them. They even came up with party ideas and recipes.
And slowly but surely the entire Star Trek franchise climbs higher and higher on my list of physical media to purchase
Time to be like a Nausicaan 🏴‍☠️
Well that sucks, I just paid for a full year. Was this announced beforehand or did they disappear with no warning? What else are they going to drop?
- Cancel and demand a refund. Also tell them that they're poop faces and have poop for faces.
- Does it really matter? You shouldn't have to follow a tracker or be up to date on if a subscription service will have what you want. I don't understand why the content can't exist on multiple platforms at once.
  
  Nebulous copyright licenses.
As if this wasn't inevitable. Buy the DVD's or Blu-Rays on eBay or just straight up pirate it. Paramount doesn't deserve our money if they pull shit like this. They haven't deserved any money for a long ass time in my opinion.
When the shows and movies left Netflix a few years back, I just purchased them all on iTunes and downloaded them.
- I was really annoyed, but I like star trek enough that I signed up for Paramount+. But when I went to watch it the app was terrible, and there were unskippable ads at the beginning of each episode. I cancelled and dusted off my sailing gear.
That doesn't make sense.
Buh?
I was genuinely excited about the tiny picture of key and peele doing a star trek sketch. Oh woes.
If you're not selling them, they should be free.
Been wondering why First Contact would appear on HBO, but then didn't have a way to watch it the last few times I was looking for something to watch on there.
