Hardly the death of linear channels at present.
Nobody has said anywhere that linear channels will die off right now. If you look at the trends in viewing streaming, which is increasing fast, and viewing traditional channels, which is reducing rapidly, you can see where this is leading. But the whole process is likely to take more than a decade.

And unlikely to change well into the future.

Correct..

And that will remain the case as the streaming boom flatlines.
Look at the trend, Den, and tell me why you think this is insignificant. The truth is, people are turning to streaming in big numbers while traditional channels are in decline. You cannot, with any credibility, ignore that.
