"Sooner or later, everything old is new again.

We may be at this point in tech, where supposedly revolutionary products are
becoming eerily similar to the previous offerings they were supposed to beat.

Take video streaming. In search of better profitability, Netflix, Disney, and
other providers have been raising prices. The various bundles are now as
annoyingly confusing as cable, and they cost basically the same. Somehow, we're
also paying to watch ads. How did that happen?"
