Maybe (HBO) Max Just Isn’t Worth It::Warner Bros. Discovery's latest earnings call reveals Max shed 700,000 subscribers in the past three months, even as it made money. That might work for Wall Street, but what about viewers?
Honestly I stopped playing video games a few years back and picked it back up during the writes strike. Dropped like $4,000 on a 7800x3d/4090 build. Cancelled all my steaming services , HBO Netflix, all of em, and signed up for game pass instead. I'm done watching stuff on them, if a series comes out I really want to see I'll grab my wooden leg and eye patch from the back of th closet.
I commend you on taking your own entertainment in your hands, but I also find it ironic that you cancelled your streaming services which cost nowhere near 4 grand. If you drop 50 a month on subscriptions, it would take about 6.6 years to spend 4 grand, but it's much more complex than that and I totally think that a gaming setup is worth so much more than streaming so I get it.
I mean do you really own your steam games either? I have 600 of em so game pass is more for the games I don't care about "owning" but at the end of the day steam could shut down on 5 years an poof there goes your games. Lol
That machine he built will not be anything close to worthless after 6.6 years. I literally just last week moved my spare 1080 ti into a second gaming computer. It came out in 2017.
I'm getting a strong vibe that people are just jealous so they have to convince themselves it's not worth it or stupid so they can feel better about not having it themselves.

After 6.6 years of streaming, you will also own absolutely nothing.
Kinda like Game Pass?

after 6.6 years the hardware will be almost worthless too, if you plan to resell it to someone else
