Re: Netflix/Streaming Services

Reading between the lines here and in light of Murdoch's sell out to Disney, if consumers use no more than four paytv services with only two being regularly used, you can equate that to how the media industry will become.

The six major Hollywood studios are already about to be reduced to five and eventually with media consolidations down to probably three. They'll be three or four companies controlling all media in the end probably with their own cable, satellite, and/or mobile networks AND streaming apps.

To think that Netflix has only been around for 20 years and only half of that as a streaming company. In that ten years the streaming operation has become so big that's its made one of the biggest media moguls of all time sell up. Astonishing. And yet some people still think on demand is irrelevant.
