The funny thing is with youtube, for example, I am a premium user. I deactivated all tracking of my habits on there. Now I am greeted, as a homepage, with nothing else than a call to action to reactivate said tracking. As a paying customer I see less (as in none at all) content on the homepage than an anonymous user would. I am subbed to 170+ channels. Yet they tell me they cannot come up with suggestions unless they can track my every step on their platform. sus. And when saying funny I mean extremely aggravating.

Thing is, most people don't want to pay for services that to them seemed to be free since forever. And this creates collective social pressure to follow suit. Nothing a big company offers is ever free. You're just paying in alternate currency.

I know and that's all good and everything. If I want that experience I would go to the movies. At home though I prefer the action to be in a confined space; why take away the option? You can still opt for a surround experience if that is more your thing. Just let the customer pick.

I do not understand where this comes from. I do not want sound behind me. Thats also why I stare at a flat screen in front of me. To each their own, but there should be the option to have a decent nighttime stereo mix.

At least you can tell people you like to read. Unfortunately, in my experience, there isn't always an option for stereo. I prefer stereo over surround sound. Never understood why this would be so hard to provide. So I read my favorite shows, too.
