All corporations. All corporations will not be happy until ownership is a concept of the past. You are borrowing the company's resources and paying them for the service.
If you don't like it, stop heralding capitalism as the be-all of economic systems...
Will that really work in long term? More and more folks are entering gig economy where incomes aren't consistently stable and people have already started to subscribe for minimum time just to consume relevant content. Are they really banking on whales forgetting to unsubscribe?
No they aren't. One thing people need to learn is; executives are some of the dumbest people on this planet. Short term profits far too often wins over logical long term projections.
