The 21st century brought about a seismic shift in the entertainment industry with the rise of digital technology and streaming services. The launch of YouTube in 2005 marked the beginning of user-generated content, allowing anyone to create and share their own videos. The 2010s saw the emergence of streaming giants like Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime, which transformed the way people consume entertainment. These platforms offered on-demand access to a vast library of content, including original series, movies, and documentaries.
