James Neumann I heard something about this, yeah. This section is particularly relevant. This still won't solve their problems of having any movies older than 1970 on the platform. They can always get brownie points and just throw some public domain older films on their service, like Night of the Living Dead (that movie has always been public domain too)

Brandon Reed They're a little late to the party. Many of these movies are both great and beloved.

Ryan I recently finished my 1st subscription there in about a year and I noticed that their selection of 70s & 80s films had improved. (I tried to rewatch Charley Varrick the other day but their print is a low quality p&s). They’re so driven by analytics that this project will have to show some tangible benefits for them to continue to expand on it. I’m not holding my breath.
