Dear Macrumors compadres,
We aren't remotely a demographic breakdown for Apple products, or Spotify, Samsung, etc. We never have and never will be.
These surveys of 500 folks or a 1000 folks are useless. The days of surveys are coming to an end, especially in political circles.
One guarantee in most surveys is that whatever Mom and Dad buy or want for Streaming Services is what the kids watch and by the time teens are in their twenties AppleTV+ suddenly becomes more appealing.
If Disney+ is to survive it has to expand beyond Star Wars/ILM, Marvel, and Disney Animations/PIXAR flicks. Adult content, dramas, serials, etc., have to expand, and no people aren't that interested in bundling Hulu and then getting tiered.
Netflix is up to $25 and change now. Time to cut the cord for myself. I dropped Disney+ because very little interested me around their main staples. I cannot stomach most of the crap on Prime [with the exceptions like Wheel of Time, Reacher, some movies but most of their serials that show promise are cancelled after one season so I don't bother investing my time in them. Still just a shipping service for me.
MAX is soon to be on the way out as well. Why? Like Netflix, Prime and Disney+/Hulu everyone is just repeatedly adding the same film contents between the four of them every quarter and then Netflix shoves 90% of content with the worst audio dubbings and content to boot.
For every single solid series produced, you get nine duds.
As soon as Fiber is installed I'm cancelling DISH and will ad a basic package with the Fiber.
I've wasted enough time on rehashed themes for several life times.
AppleTV+ is one of the only places whose original adult content is nearly always guaranteed to run three or more seasons. And it's quality.
Spotify is utter garbage and has been from day one. Apple Music has some areas they push I cannot stomach but that's music. There is so much to explore I have zero interest leaving, especially with Apple One that gives me News, Music, Video, iCloud+, consistency between the entire ecosystem all for a great price value.
Vellum for my novel publishing, Logic Pro/Pro Tools for Music production, Affinity Suite and LibreOffice/iWorks for other lesser needs, along with Pixelmator Pro, TeXLive, a bazillion other developer tools, including Xcode I keep busy.
That and over 600 books and counting at home to immerse myself in to pass the hours.
For all the great published works out in the world, the streaming services, sans Apple (still with duds to boot) are just as bad as Hollywood for the past several decades. It finds a hit and rehashes it to death for the next decade.
Marvel and DC are on the outs and yet we keep getting worse and worse new serials from them of characters only hardcore comic nerds even know about.
Here's to more Marvel and DC disasters and the box office. Here's to less Mob Films, Cop/Hospital/Fire Dramas and above all else, less Reality TV crap.
