The only company that's given me a discount (£25 one-off payment) because of the Coronavirus is my car insurance company who I'm six months into a contract with, as their claim rate has plummeted. I suspect the Now TV discount is more due to competition in the streaming market, particularly from new entrant Disney +.
If Amazon and Netflix are still gaining "millions of more customers" then there's little incentive for them to drop their prices now. They might have to do this later if the expected global recession occurs though.
