I'm sure they realise that to be a success they need both their own quality commissions and an archive of movies from elsewhere - which after all is exactly the model that HBO has.

This is the one issue with streaming services, you may have a list of stuff to watch, then turn on one day to watch it and find out it's been removed. To justify their prices, let alone any rises, content has to increase in quantity, not reduce.

Give some of their original shows a try, you may not like them, but you won't know until you do.
I wanted to hate House of Cards, mainly because it's a remake of an excellent British series of the same name. The American show was quite different, without our kind of humour and subtlety, but in the end I took it for what it was and forgot about comparing the two shows.

No. They only decided not to go ahead for now with offering live channels themselves.
