Forums - Gaming - [Reuters] Netflix to buy Warner Bros Discovery's studios, streaming unit for $72 billion

Tober said:

The question is why is WB selling? Is it still a viable company or not. If not, it's selling or ending.

WB has been badly mismanaged for a long time and has been shuffled from corporate owner to corporate owner.

Netflix production record is really low quality, they are as bad as a studio can actually be bad. HBO was pretty good and Warner is okay, at least in cinema. Netflix buying them is probably a bad thing if you actually care for quality content

This is my take as well.
Then factor in that netflix will want to recoup investments.... and they are bound to try and save a buck here & there.
Which likely also will effect quality.

I could see HBO shows being different going forwards, and likely not for the better.
