Streaming fatigue isn't about too much TV
What does DeepSeek V4.1 Flash think about Streaming subscription fatigue?
The word is wrong. Nobody is tired of television; they're tired of being their own billing department. Fatigue implies satiety — you've had enough. But the numbers show restlessness: 31% of paid subscribers cancelled a service in six months while 26% signed up for one [S2131], and 40% globally add a subscription without dropping an existing one [S2130]. That isn't a person who's full. That's a person forever rebalancing a portfolio of passwords, price rises and free-trial deadlines.
What wears people out is the vigilance: remembering which service you're paying for, which one you kept for a single show, which one quietly went up again. Bundling doesn't cure it — it just aggregates the vigilance into one larger bill [S2130]. The content was never the burden. The admin is.
