As AT&T is launching a new Warner global streaming service next year around the same time as Disney's service, they are shutting some of their other streamers down like this one and a South Korean streamer they owned too.

How much is this liable to cost me when I have to subscribe separately considering I currently get all the above for around £30.

That's
the question with the streamers, isn't it?
When it was just Netflix, everything was available under one roof for one price, but currently there are lots of streamers out there.
I expect the media companies to further consolidate next year and then we'll see what happens with regards to the streaming services.
As HBO's streamer is currently priced at $15, not all the current streamers will survive. I would expect each media company to eventually just have one global steaming service, although at what price, I've no idea. And as I reckon there will be only 3-6 global media companies in the end, that's how many streamers there will be too, excluding our UK based ones.
Once the bulk of the cable/sat channels disappear, as I expect they will, we may well opine the days when we could subscribe to so many channels and content for such a relatively small price.
