The streaming wars began around 2010 when Netflix introduced their first streaming-only plan with no DVD rentals, other players (cough, cough… Blockbuster) laughed at the time… little did they know. A decade after, there’s a multitude of streaming services available for mainstream entertainment and also for specific niches (e.g., Curiosity Stream - documentaries, Crunchyroll - anime, etc.).\nHow Did We Get Here? # This question could turn into its series of posts, aka a very long and boring answer. The short version, Netflix hit gold when they launched their streaming-only subscription service that allowed customers to watch what they wanted when they wanted. This was a massive shift from the linear TV experience where you either had to wait in front of the TV to watch your favorite show, record and watch it later, or wait for a rerun (fun fact: there was another option to set a reminder to watch your shows :D). Not only did Netflix launch a way better product to consume content, but it also changed the way users discovered new series and movies by recommending new shows based on previous history. Users flocked to this service, which was significantly better than the alternatives and also cheaper than the average cable subscription at the time (i.e., cutting the chord).\nAfter Netflix showed everyone how people really wanted to consume content, several players were interested in replicating that model themselves. Traditional content producers (e.g., HBO, Disney, etc.) saw a way to control their distribution channel and get a direct relationship with their customers. Other players, like Apple and Amazon, saw a good opportunity to expand their service subscription strategy by offering yet-another-service to their user-base. This year, most of these services reached hundreds of millions of paying users, and the competition in this industry was never been this strong.\nMassive Investment in Content # One of the strong signals of this competition is the huge amounts of money being spent in content production. HBO just released House of the Dragon, a prequel to their hit series Game of Thrones. The first season had an estimated production cost of just under $20 million per episode, making the 10 episode run cost a full $200 million. In comparison, Game of Thrones cost around $100 million per season, with the average cost per episode starting around $6 million in season 1 and going up to $15 million in the final season. This means HBO just invested roughly double what it did in the last season of Game of Thrones.\nAmazon, coincidentally, also decided to launch its prequel of a super-loved property in the fantasy drama space, Lord of the Rings. Investment in the new series, called Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, is estimated to be around $1 billion. Amazon bought the franchise rights to Lord of the Rings for $250 million and invested $465 million to produce the eight-episode first season of the show. In comparison, the entire trilogy of the Lord of the Rings was produced for roughly $300 million, $100 million for each movie.\nNetflix has been increasing its costs with content production in the last years, arriving at $17 billion this year. Disney is set to spend even more than that, $32 billion (even after cuts). In a different space, big tech companies are also getting into live sports. ALine truncated

This guide will step you through the process and highlight things you need to consider.\nStep 1: Upgrade Hugo # Congo 2.0 requires a minimum of Hugo v0.87.0 or later Congo is built to take advantage of some of the latest Hugo features. You should regularly keep your Hugo installation up to date to avoid any issues.\nYou can check your current version using the command hugo version. Visit the Hugo docs for information on obtaining a newer release for your platform.\nStep 2: Upgrade Congo # The process for upgrading Congo will depend on how you include the theme in your project. Instructions for each method can be found below.\nUpgrade using Hugo Upgrade using git Upgrade manually Upgrade using Hugo # To upgrade a go module to a new major release, the modules.toml and go.mod files need to be updated. In each file, update the path to the theme from github.com/jpanther/congo to github.com/jpanther/congo/v2.\nThen change into your project directory and execute the following command:\nhugo mod get -u Note that in some circumstances there may be issues with this step due to the way that Hugo locally caches modules. If the command above doesn\u0026rsquo;t work, try using hugo mod clean to clear out the local cache and re-download any modules.\nOnce the theme has been upgraded, continue to the next section.\nUpgrade using git # Git submodules can be upgraded using the git command. Simply execute the following command and the latest version of the theme will be downloaded into your local repository:\ngit submodule update --remote --merge Once the submodule has been upgraded, continue to the next section.Line truncated
