About this video
The Streaming War Is Over. Piracy Won.
In 2020, piracy was supposed to be dead. But by 2024, it came back stronger than ever. Netflix, Disney+, HBO Max, and the entire streaming industry made one fatal mistake: they betrayed their users.
This video breaks down how the golden age of streaming collapsed, why piracy is surging again, and what this means for the future of digital content.
From rising subscription costs to password-sharing crackdowns and deleted shows viewers had enough. The result? A $113 billion storm that's shaking the entire entertainment world.
Whether you're a streamer, content creator, or everyday viewer — this is the truth they don’t want you to know.
