Ah, one of the strengths of streaming.

It's simple really, we just tariff the internet!

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

He's probably trying to figure out how to do that

everyone knows america is lacking in the homemade movie department

Well, yeah, production in California is an all-time low. This isn’t exactly the answer though.

[–] nave@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I thought most filming had moved to Atlanta though?

[–] ohulancutash@feddit.uk 0 points 1 year ago

A lot went there, even more went to Britain.

So what exactly will be tariffed? Production cost? Ticket sales?

[–] xyzzy@lemm.ee 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Trump doesn't even know, so no one else does either. For all we know, it might mean new Criterion 4K Blu-rays would be priced at $80.

[–] redhorsejacket@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

Please no. Adding to my collection is pricey enough as-is :(

[–] Trex202@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

What's next? Tariffs on "Thoughts and Prayers"?

[–] aramova@infosec.pub 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's the only fucking thing that southern states and conservatives could offer during school shootings. You can't tax that!

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

Sorry, he meant tithe.

Posted at 7pm. Sundowning hitting hard these days.

[–] MrTrono@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

Lucky for me I can't even purchase movies any more, what I can purchase is a limited revocable license. Did enshitification accidentally find a tariff loop hole?

He's just giving Netflix and the others an excuse to raise prices on their plans, probably globally.

Yarr harr, fiddle dee dee

I wonder how he'll tarriff TPB? Methinks until he and Musk install the US version of the Chinese great firewall, it'll be difficult.
