It's comments like this that make reading comments so much suck.
You took one tiny misworded part of his entire post and highlighted it to make an issue out of it. When you knew dang well what his overall argument was and what he really meant with that tiny badly worded part.
Sorry, but I do think it's relevent to the overall argument.
Netflix and its ilk are actually some of the best cases for advertising: they have a high customer LTV and were once not well-known at all. They spend hundreds of millions of dollars on advertising every year.
I feel like that undermines the entire argument. Just because most advertising is irrelevant to a3n doesn't mean advertising is irrelevant.
I likewise buy very few consumer goods, but I do appreciate advertising both as a consumer and an entrepreneur.
My point was that he wasn't actually saying he doesn't want for anything. Of course he does, and yes for him that includes Netflix.
My point was that his argument was that he generally knows what he wants and doesn't want to be incessantly marketed to -- yet, because of bad wording, you made it sound like he was erroneously claiming he wants nothing.
Almost by definition, we all want something. But that does not require constant marketing.
