Paramount Studios is shutting down but Paramount Plus is not shutting down.

I know that there are a few on this forum who are subscribed to Paramount Plus so I just wanted to share this information since the news has come out that Paramount Studios is shutting down . The link also provides information about the current Paramount shows.

"Is Paramount Plus shutting down?​

No, Paramount Plus is not shutting down.

This is because Paramount Plus is an entirely different entity from Paramount TV Studios. As such, due to a lack of direct relation between the streaming platform and the soon-to-be former division of Paramount Global, Paramount Plus will remain unaffected.|"

Thank you Mark. This is good to know, because I'm kind of liking Paramount+. I subscribed, then unsubscribed twice when it was CBS All Access and thought I'd never subscribe again. I don't know why changing to Paramount+ seemed better.

Producing the content isn't as lucrative as streaming someone else's content? That seems upside down. Streaming services produce a wealth of their own content, using some of Hollywood's best performers, but the writing seems weaker, at least on Netflix, which produces a lot of content.

I know there's been a discussion about this further in another SF thread but can't find it, so maybe I can get the answers here: Does anybody have Paramount+ Essential, the cheaper plan and how bad are the ads with it?
