But they don&#8217;t deliver things in boxes so let&#8217;s forget about them for a minute.<\/p>\n<p>These days, it seems like you can get a box full of anything.\u00a0Think of something, and there&#8217;s a box for it. Here are some of those things:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Coffee?

And it gets really weird.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s interesting to look as this as the same shift we&#8217;ve seen in physical retail, viz. from an &#8220;ownership&#8221; to an &#8220;access&#8221; model. Case in point, nobody\u00a0<em>buys\u00a0<\/em>DVDs anymore (I hope); you just go and see what&#8217;s on Netflix and watch that. You pay Netflix every month for\u00a0<em>access<\/em> to movies, relieving yourself of the burden of having to store a Netflix-sized library of physical disks in your home. Same for music with Spotify. (Woo, Spotify).<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s almost just like adding another outgoing to your monthly budget (well, it literally is I suppose). We&#8217;re already familiar with rent, which is just access to housing as opposed to ownership. Likewise with internet, phone bills and water &#8211; we pay for access to these utilities. Annoyingly, gas\/electricity is still provided by usage but I suppose that makes sense since are you physically consuming something and usage can vary drastically by season.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s no reason that &#8220;subscription&#8221;\u00a0couldn&#8217;t eventually become your primary method of consumption. I&#8217;d pay my rent and so on, then my monthly &#8220;Food &amp; Drink&#8221; bill, provided to me by a single company according to my need. Hopefully it wouldn&#8217;t necessarily be served in a cardboard box, but you can see what I mean.<\/p>\n<p>This would help enormously with people on a budget, I think. Knowing up front how much you&#8217;re spending on food is an essential part of budgeting, and having it as a simple flat rate every month would be really helpful.<\/p>\n<p>But\u00a0is there something intrinsically worthwhile in the old model? Are some things irreducible to a boxscription? The way things are going would suggest not, though it seems likely that there&#8217;ll be some consumer resistance and the revolution will be a slow one.<\/p>\n<p>When &#8216;out&#8217; shopping you are an active agent, making decisions for yourself about yourself, picking smart offers and acting on whims. Giving this up to an external agent feels a bit like surrendering control of your life. But does it really matter, if we still have the choice about who we&#8217;re surrendering control too? (There&#8217;s enough competition in the boxscription industry to allow this). Losing that choice can sometimes be liberating.<\/p>\n<p>So my overall point is that this future isn&#8217;t necessarily a bleak one. Having our daily essentials packaged and shipped to us in a small box every week might appear to be the apex of the consumerist nightmare dreamt up by Huxley and others, but it&#8217;s not so scary.<\/p>\n<p>And that pants subscription looks REALLY useful to be honest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s a great time to be alive.
