No, you’d still end paying that but in subscriptions to several streaming services and then some extras to rent or buy shows that are not freely available anymore. In the meantime those other channels that a smaller number of people watched just get cancelled.

Unbundling was never going to make watching cheaper unless you limited the shows you watched and were lucky enough that they shows you wanted were available on the same services.
