I'm going to say this right now...

If you claim to be pro-net neutrality, then you cannot say that this is good in any way. You can't complain about companies controlling the internet, and then be perfectly fine with a basic monopoly in the entertainment business because mah Mahvel.

Absolutely wrong.  I'm not a Disney fan, but I'm a Marvel fan.  They have a product that I want that I'm will to vote with my wallet in support of that product.  And that product is ultimately a "WANT, " not a need.  I can do without if needed be.  Not the same as the internet which in essences is a tool, a near necessity.

Marvel is an arm of Disney. Whether or not you like Disney, you're paying them by going to Marvel movies, so in that sense, you are unintentionally supporting Disney, whether or not you actually like them. I myself go to Marvel movies, and I probably still will depending on the appearance of the film, but this is a super business that increased so much today. 25% of stock shares may seem like a ton, but when you see what Disney got in return, it's minimal dividends.

Everyone complains about the big ISP's gaining ground in repealing NN, and yet when Disney continues to buy their competition, no one bats an eye. I'm not saying boycott Disney, mostly because anything you see in media is most likely connected to Disney in some way. They now control 60% of Hulu and are ever increasing, and it wont be long until Universal gets bought out along with DreamWorks.
