Even if the likes of Disney eventually make their content exclusive the likes of Sky still has NBC and its own production companies with which to redirect it's money.
So the short answer to Old Boy’s question is no, it’s not obvious. Linear TV channels and pay-tv companies that have a mix of linear and streaming content continue to make money. Production companies want to sell content and actors/writers/directors would prefer to be in work than out of work.
