The rise of digital distribution, especially through streaming services like Netflix and Disney+, has changed how we watch movies and shows.
Improvements to the Experience:
Easy Access: People can watch big movies right from their homes. Popular shows like "Squid Game" and "Stranger Things" are great examples of this.
More Choices: Streaming platforms offer a wide variety of content. This sometimes helps new stories become popular. For example, the film "Roma" became well-known mostly because people could easily watch it online.
Possible Downsides:
Less Social Time: Watching movies at home can feel lonely. It’s not the same as the excitement of going to the theater with friends for big releases like "Avengers: Endgame."
Less Creativity: When studios focus more on making money, they might choose easy-to-make content over unique and creative projects.
In the end, whether digital streaming is a good or bad thing really depends on what viewers like and how movie culture keeps changing.
