    Yo man let’s not go crazy, $300 a year would be on the high end of acceptable for that. The costs to keep more data available when you own the licenses are quite low as a percentage of total operations, so keeping old content up should be the norm instead of something to be lauded. You don’t get a cookie for base competency.

      Oh, I’d be willing to pay less. If you have full cable, balls to the wall and most of the streaming services you could get up around that range. It’s ridiculous amount a month to pay for entertainment. But if you look at what you get for that, It’s a 300 lb turd with a couple of gems here and there. If they all put their licensing catalogs together in one place they could probably make a hell of a lot more money than trying to nickel and dime everybody individually.
