The streaming wars are about to begin? The media seems to be pressing that thought, while we know that this has been happening for a while. That’s not to say it isn’t going to be becoming more of a mainstream focus (this is a show all about it after all), but it is now less than a month away from two pretty big players entering the war.

Take a listen to Dustin and Tony as they discuss all the latest news from around the world of the streaming services.
