Of course things change, and successful companies adapt, just as Netflix adapted from its DVD rental beginnings.
The problem I see with your arguments is you only ever see things going one way - down the proverbial shute. You appear to have little regard to the power of innovation to meet what you deduce are immovable obstacles to progress.
It is fair enough to point to the huge debt that Netflix has, and continues to accrue. But to be so cock sure that they will never come out of the other side shows a lack of flexibility of thought on your part.
Whilst I cannot rule out that Netflix could fail in the end, nor can you rule out that they may well succeed.

You don't sound as confident as you did a mere half a dozen posts ago.
On the contrary Old Boy it is you who consistently only sees things one way. Streaming is the future. Death to linear television. The date slides, as with every generation of Nostradamus books but the core message is the same.
I on the other hand see a rich and diverse future, with more ways than ever before for people to enjoy television. Linear. PVR. On Demand. Streaming. These are truly the halcyon days of television - you should sit back and enjoy it more rather than offer us doom and gloom about how our TV packages will become worthless and we will need to subscribe to half a dozen streamers at greater cost just to enjoy the content we get now!
