I believe that in a few years every content owner will have developed their own streaming platform. Or the opposite in Netflix's case. Customers will be forced to pay for N different providers to get access to all content.

What we need is legislation similar to radio broadcasting, which has fixed per-play rates, but for video.

Perhaps this is a business opportunity for white label streaming services (as hosted SaaS or on-premise deployment).
Plex could develop their product to fill this market imo
I'm surprised Netflix hasn't already done this TBH.
