A Snag in Grand Streaming Loyalty Plans

Whenever someone is struggling with the multitude of streaming services available on their smart devices, someone inevitably starts to wax poetic about the convenience of cable and the good ol’ days (which everyone complained bitterly about back then, BTW).

The innovator in the group will then start to wax even more poetically about how rich the person(s) or business who “conveniently bundles the highly inconvenient, hot mess of streaming services” will be. Then, the self-proclaimed genius in the group will take a beat before dropping the blockchain bomb: “This is a perfect blockchain project, blah, blah, blah.”

You know who this is a great project for? Walmart. They’re thinking about it. Let’s see if they actually do it. Walmart has a history of thinking about media and entertainment, dipping its toe in the water, then slipping on the floor.
