Nobody wants “1 company to control all content.”

What we do need is something like the music industry has. Subscribe to Spotify, Deezer, Tidal. They all pretty much have the same stuff, with slight differences in UI and the odd exclusive to differentiate them.

That’s what they need to do - cross license. They can even have a delay before they do so for their own content or whatever.

Just the admin of subscribing to 20 different services is enough to make me subscribe to none.
