"Enshittification" is selling people on VC garbage that's just as easy & convenient as bittorrent «but legal!», up until they stop using bittorrent, at which point you just turn the thing precisely as annoying and expensive as the one that made people start using bittorrent to begin with.

I think it's only the realization of their business plan: for 20 years ads and PIIs were enough to make money, but now that the customers are addicted to the services, they can start milking users as well.

@flaki tbf streaming was a _lot_ easier than bittorrent back when there weren't 700 competing services, each offering "exclusive" content you can't watch anywhere else (well, except bittorrent)
