Re: Your livelihood
Cut your spending. Save your money. Many of the revenue streams that have gushed into your industry for decades, some for nearly a century, are about to dry up. This will likely mean a period of belt tightening like you’ve never seen before.
The end is coming for DVDs, traditional movie rentals, and yes, much of your cable money will likely disappear.” (via CNET)
