We have never had so many choices of programs at our disposal and so little choice of how we can watch them.

As if stuck in

Un jour sans fin

, we always repeat the same gesture with the same tools: our computer screen, our tablet, our smartphone or our television become THE means - the only one or almost - by which we consume audiovisual productions ... in streaming.

And Humanity created streaming

And for good reason.

The cinemas, barely reopened this summer with meager programming, are still closed.

Outdoor cinema and drive-ins are not in season and not legion.

The projections on white sheet with a group of friends, it is not really recommended either… There remains television and this new El Dorado: streaming.

A dematerialized paradise, streaming platforms were adapted to this solitary and bulimic consumption of content.

They now offer an ever wider and more attractive offer, thousands of hours of various programs in which we are guided through a succession of algorithms.

Open Sesame !

In millions of homes, it's been the same ritual every night for a year.

You must first decide on which video on demand platform to go: Arte.tv, Salto, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney +, CanalPlay, AppleTV, YouTube Premium, OCS, Hulu, SFR Play ... well be able to watch tonight?

We have already seen the programs we wanted to see, and even those we had to see.

There always comes this critical moment when choosing a program which anguishes and annoys more than one and takes between 5 minutes and several hours depending on the person.

And you, how do you cope with this extremely rapid transition to an all-streaming world?

Do you still take so much pleasure in watching your programs at night?

Do you feel that you have too many choices - of platforms as well as of programs - to the point of sometimes feeling overwhelmed by the offer?

Do you have the feeling that you have exhausted all the programs of one or more platforms?
