Most public media is indeed shit. There are some better services available but you pay for it though the nose.

I feel I should clarify my earlier posts in this thread a little. What the US has at the moment is the worst possible outcome of the kind of thing I'm talking about, a group of individuals associated purely by wealth engaged in a giant circle jerk (consider who's involved, it's best not to visualize that). Ideally you have a group of wealthy and connected individuals lead by a communally decided agenda, not individual gain. Possible? Not sure.
