  • The USCHO Fan Forum has migrated to a new plaform, xenForo. Most of the function of the forum should work in familiar ways. Please note that you can switch between light and dark modes by clicking on the gear icon in the upper right of the main menu bar. We are hoping that this new platform will prove to be faster and more reliable. Please feel free to explore its features.

Business, Economics, and Taxes 2: That's Why We Fight to Take the Means Back

I was gonna say, just wait until every single game is a microtransactions scam.
Not just games. They've already turned streaming into microtransactions. "We're putting ads on this, but if you don't want to watch ads just pay more money." Of course, some events will have ads no matter how much you pay. Tivo (remember Tivo?) is taking away the very ad-skipping feature that made it popular. But....if you pay even more you can have it back!

How long until we see:
"Like the first two acts of Doomsday? Pay just $3.99 to see how it ends!"

Cars are like this too. "This model comes with heated seats and remote starting. And if you want to use them, just pay us $14.99/month...forever."
