Netflix changed how we watch TV, but it didn't really change what we watch...
Netflix has achieved its incredible growth by taking distribution away from cable companies. Instead of watching The Office on cable, people now watch The Office on Netflix.
This edge isn't sustainable.
...
Disney's cable business has stagnated over the past seven years. But in about 175 days, Disney is set to launch its own streaming service called Disney+.It's going to charge $6.99/month—around $6 cheaper than Netflix.
And it's pulling all its content off of Netflix.
This is a big deal.
No more Bunk'd on Netflix? Nooooooooooooooo...

The problem with those sex laws was that if someone saw you doing a 69 with your wife they reported you to the clergy and the local lord meaning accusations of satanism and stint in jail. If you were lucky.
Yes this is a bad law and a bad system. It just feeds itself. The companies make money from copyrights then use that money to buy laws to make even note money.
Copyrights. 20 year term max. If there is no clear human owner then it is automatically in the public domain. Easy.
