In the digital product era, almost all “products“ are fed into a subscription-based payment model…
No one owns anything
No one ever really “acquires “ anything
You hold on to a piece of digital something for as long as you pay the bill
The moment you don’t, you lose access
For real, it feels as if we are being held hostage to digital companies
Once upon a time twenty-plus years ago, people spent $100 a week on music, books, and magazines, directly supporting the creative cultures they cared about.
Today, people rent access to infinite creative work for $15 a month, with little of that money going to the creators of the works themselves.
