      People have less money now because there are no govt wage supplements and student loan payments are being turned back on.

      Did it boost their profits? They may have gotten more subs and with it more revenue, but aren’t they paying royalties on every stream? Seems more streams per sub would cause profit-per-sub to go down.

      Probably more total profit over all, but a reduced margin.

        No, that’s why writers and actors are striking.
