    How do you spend billions of dollars and not produce any content anyone wants? What were those thousands of man-hours spent doing?

      It’ll be a sad day for the people who lose their jobs because some idiot wasted colossal amounts of money on a delusional dream. Then again it was their choice to work for one of the most evil companies on the planet, so I don’t really pity them.
