Struum launches its ‘ClassPass for streaming’ service to the public

Today, the streaming landscape is dominated by larger subscription services, including Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV+, HBO Max, Disney+, and YouTube, who together have a 75% share of the market, according to Nielsen.

These are the people who brought themselves to the brink, studied near-death experiences and advanced science so the danger zone could become the comfort zone. Sometimes what they did seemed just plain crazy.
