How do you feel about this treatment from a streaming service?

Five Nights at Freddy's 2 was coming out on Peacock and I hadn't seen the 1st movie... But I had played the game and was familiar with the concept.

So I wanted to see the 1st movie before watching the 2nd movie but a few months earlier they took it off Peacock.

This is why the whole thing sucks. It is available again after a couple weeks but they locked it behind an additional paywall. Not on Peacock. They removed it from Peacock and threw it behind another paywall.

This is the dumbest strategy to drum up interest. Hide it.

I already only pay for 1 streaming service at a time and refuse to pay extra for anything

It’s annoying but they’re not going to keep the same shows and movies on the platforms forever. The paywall is just like renting a movie before streaming. The treatment I loathe from streaming services are these constant increases. The whole point of streaming was to save money. Now just to have the basic streaming apps it costs the same as a cable bill.
