Put everything on 1 or 2 platforms and take cuts depending on what people are watching.
I don't care if there are 10 platforms. Let them compete on features and customer service, but the content should be available on all. A bit like ISPs, give me the content and pay the creator a cut when n I watch.
But fuck this 10 services with fragmented content.
People saw how successful Netflix was and wanted the same even though it was never going to happen. By doing this they've now made Netflix shit too.
Everyone was saying this about the streaming boon then, too. We all saw "cable 2.0" headed at us.
You must have got down voted by a young person, because people have been seeing this coming for about a decade
That would be smart and is what originally happened.
