That's just off the top of my head and doesn't take into consideration the many traditional pay TV services. All these services are also competing against other digital subs such as music streaming , gaming services and books such as Kindle.

People only have so much money to go around.
Yes, agreed, but as I said before, you would not subscribe to them all. I subscribe to Netflix, Amazon and Now TV for example, but not to Starzplay (and I wouldn't either to Hayu if it wasn't in the Full House bundle anyway). It's no good subscribing to all those different services if you don't have the time to watch the content!

In the end, people are going to subscribe to those services that best meet their needs.
