Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
It’s an interesting twist on how this could go for an ISP, or a cable operator, seeking to reduce their costs to step away from third party content almost completely and bundle an Apple TV (Or similar product) and their own app with an internet service. Then leave users to decide what they want to take “over the top” by themselves.

Virgin, and Horizon STBs, do have the capability to do this as opposed to delivery over DVB-C. The TV side would then benefit from capacity upgrades of DOCSIS 4.0 with a modem upgrade.
