The industry panicked. For a month, executives tried to force the "Human Curation Renaissance." Apple Music hired 500 DJs. Disney+ launched "Steamboat Willie's Picks," a human-curated section that turned out to just be a list of the head of content's nephew's failed pilot scripts. Audiences rejected it.

Last October, Netflix quietly canceled The Historian , a $300 million period drama that had a 94% critic score but was deemed "incomplete viewing" because only 58% of viewers made it past the seven-minute-long opening tracking shot of a Viking funeral. The next day, Max removed 200 original series from its library to "streamline the asset portfolio." They vanished. Not into a vault, but into the tax-credit ether, as if they had never existed. The industry panicked

But last night, I sat on my couch with a glass of wine and watched a 1974 Italian horror movie I had never heard of, just because the poster looked interesting. I didn't check my phone. I didn't have the option to see a vertical short about the plot summary. I just watched.
