I agree that whether we like it or not streaming will continue to increase at the expense of linear channels.

What I disagree with is the inference that this will be better.

After a hard day, it is relaxing to sit down and within a few clicks be watching favourite pre-recorded episodes of series previously easily set up waiting for you on your hard disk, sometimes giving a pleasant surprise because new episodes have magically appeared. All this at a fixed monthly rate negotiated about once a year.

No messing with different inputs and sticks. No weighing up the contents of one against the other. No searching for the cheapest code. No wading through rubbish looking for what you want to watch. No worrying over the monthly cost of it all. To me, this is hell though I accept others a actually want this.
