For a moment, it seemed like the streaming apps were the things that could save us from the hegemony of cable TV—a system where you had to pay for a ton of stuff you didn’t want to watch so you could see the handful of things you were actually interested in.

    I feel more like the different streaming companies tried to copy Netflix rather than realize they should have copied HBO Max instead.

    Don’t try to make a ton of content to justify $20 a month, but target a more focused media library that would cost $6 a month but you can charge $10 a month.
