However, the programmes available on YouTube's premium service simply don't appeal in the same way as Netflix and Prime do, and they want more than Netflix are charging for it!

Too little content, not very popular material at that.
The same rules apply to Alphabet as everyone else though. They could acquire content, buy production companies, other content owners/distributors?

If the fourth biggest company in the world is weary of going all in here why do the same rules not apply to Amazon or $20bn in debt Netflix?

Disney aren't protected from market forces the way you seem to believe they are.
