It's remarkable that Tibetan culture has been so tenacious that there's anything left of it today. If the government of 50 years ago had been able to exert the kind of control over its people that they do today, it's hard to imagine that it wouldn't have been fully eradicated by now.

But it’s been free for a really long time

Of course it has. You need to offer the world a useful service for some length of time before you have dominated the market to such an extent that you can cut the quality and jack up the prices without there being any meaningful competition to worry about.

So who exactly does own OpenSubtitles Group Limited, and what are their motivations? If you're claiming to know, I assume you must be some kind of insider? Because they don't seem to be all that open about it. Otherwise we can only judge by their actions.

I love it, but it was pretty messy a lot of the time in various different ways. My impressions were:

Season 1: Brilliant, really good science fiction
Season 2: Fun episodic comedy sci fi
Season 3: Sometimes weird, sometimes gruesomely tedious
Season 4: Trying to be more like a normal comedy TV show, results mixed
