From Extra Crunch

• Patreon, the focus of our first EC-1, has now announced the new pricing tiers that they telegraphed in our deep dive.
• New reports discuss the growing demand for foreign talent and consumer annoyance with media fragmentation (i.e. can’t everything just be on Netflix?)
• One of our Verified Expert lawyers, José Ancer, discusses why convertible notes are better than SAFEs, something of a counter-point to our piece last week on pre- and post-money SAFEs.
• Reminder: Brian Heater is hosting a conference call on robotics at 3pm EDT / 12pm PDT. Watch your inboxes for dial-in details.
