I think the scene will look rather different in the years to come, Den. The big change will come when the BBC licence fee is scrapped in favour of a subscription. That's when those who can't afford a Netflix subscription will at last have a genuine choice about which services to purchase.

When that happens (and that is likely to be at least a decade away), the likes of Netflix will indeed be able to deliver big audiences.
