Nobody is disagreeing that competition will keep Netflix and Amazon on their toes, nor that commercials will feature in a number of the new (and maybe existing) streamers, but the indication seems to be that most providers will offer a mix of the two. However, those who say Netflix will bomb out are being a little extreme, to say the least.

Repeating the same message
ad infinitum is trolling.
It’s your own contention that the market will be diverse, it’s your own contention that content providers will start to pull their own content onto their own platforms. Now that both of those appear to be true Netflix is the one saddled with $20bn of debt to service, and limited assets, that other platforms will not be burdened with.
Nobody has said they’ll bomb out - if anything they’ll get swallowed up for their customer base.
Elsewhere in the market DAZN in the USA are now on the Comcast platform with the latter taking 15-30% as a cut because the direct to consumer market isn’t giving adequate reach that incumbent platforms have.
