Easy.

Except it’s not. Streaming doesn’t offer the compelling content that’s the bread and butter of pay-tv in this country.

You attach an importance to something unrealisable if you want it all on one box with integrated menus and search functions. Disney don’t want to direct you to Viacom content, or Netflix content, or NBC content.

If you think they do then you’ve missed the point altogether. If you are relying on a platform to offer it then it’s no different to Sky or Virgin now.

Opinion pieces from digital marketing companies isn’t evidence.
Except the fact that most of the main channels DO offer streaming options to watch most of the broadcast TV. iPlayer, all4, 5on Demand etc.
