That was kind of my thought too. These people were offering a subscription based service that people were paying for. This shows pretty conclusively that people are willing to pay for content when it is conveniently packaged. When it’s broken apart and fragmented, piracy and alternative consumption method become more appealing.

Could you imagine if the music industry operated in the same way? Instead of choosing whether to use Spotify, Apple Music, etc, you needed to have both just to consume a relatively small collection of popular music? That would be madness—and it’s madness for film and television content as well.

This is messed up, on account of the fact that new construction units in BC are required by law to have AC, so him installing that unit, assuming it was done by a bonded professional, should be automatically approved. If it was done by some friend of a friend for beer money that’s different, but an efficiency upgrade by a qualified professional, I genuinely cannot think of a downside.
