The Future of Streaming Technology

An industry that Netflix once largely had to itself is now crowded with competition. New services with established names are making way on their ability to crack into this industry. Online streaming has become a big industry in recent years, with services such as Netflix, Hulu, NBC, HBO and more recently, Disney+ putting more than $5 billion in the streaming technology industry.


In early November Disney Plus launched, promising consumers streaming access to Disney's vast content library for $6.99 a month. Popular content includes many movies from the Marvel saga, all Disney-original animated movies, all seasons of the Simpsons, and so much more. Researchers believe that in 2020, there will be more streaming services created, including the planned launch of HBO Max and NBC's Universal's Peacock Platform.


With so much content available on so many platforms, it is vital that the customer discovers and finds new content, which is definitely an essential aspect of the platform's success.


The question many people are asking themselves - will it really be worth it to sift through the vast amount of content available on these streaming devices?

Bob's Burgers
Adult Swim

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.

We're in college, none of us actually have anything together. In fact, not having anything together is one of our biggest stressors. However, there's a few little things that we do ever so often that actually make us feel like we have our lives together.

1. Making yourself dinner

And no this does not include ramen or Annie's Mac & Cheese. Making a decent meal for yourself is one of the most adult things you can do living on campus. And the food is much better than it would be at the dining hall.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.
