Yeah, this is antiquated.

You can offer a premium option, but this business model has to rely on advertising on a free to use option

I'm legitimately mad you posted this. I know you warned me and I know it's my own fault for clicking anyway but oh my god. How could you do this to me?

Still pissed as hell this shitty fucking platform revived Reno 911 but hopefully Netflix or Hulu picks it when the service goes under.

If you have 2 or more TMobile lines, you get it for free.

Thankfully I only have 1 line.

I think it's like a netflix but for shows that are only 10 minutes long

anyway it's weird how they got all these A list actors to be in their shows and then they fail hard

Important points from the article up there in #1
Many people who downloaded Quibi had a simple question: Why cant I watch it on TV?

Also coming soon, Mr. Katzenberg said: Quibi will be less walled off from the internet, and users will be able to share its content on social media platforms.

Several executives, including Janice Min, left Quibi during its beta phase

Obviously, someone got a "this is how it's going to be" mindset early on, and anyone who pointed out the glaring flaws and holes was ignored - until it failed exactly as expected.

whats hillarious about that hole 10 minute limit thing is

creators: "wow streaming services mean we are not confined to a time limit we can make our episodes as long as they need to be for the story"

quibi: "hey we are going to offer you tighter time constrants than even 11 minute cartoons have so come give us all your ideas"

Apparently, it's yet another goddamn streaming service nobody actually wanted - except it's phones only, nothing's longer than ten minutes, it didn't have a back-catalog of content to dump online at launch, and it's too locked down to build any sort of grassroots hype outside of its walled garden.

Already some decent twitter threads, which would have helped if it was possible to share/meme its stuff on twitter.

Oh yeah I'd love to pay for a streaming service that only has original content at 10 minutes per episode

God what a horrible fucking idea, I'm genuinely baffled this thing ever got as far as it did

I've seen a few ads for shows on there that looks coo and then immediately lost interest when I learned it was a ten minute thing.

I'm guessing "Quibi" is a portmanteau of Quick Bite, but I could be wrong.

That was pretty good. I would actually watch it if I wasn't required to subscribe to another service.
