> sub par library of content In the past year, they've produced 600 hours of new original content that earned 54 Emmy nominations, and you get it for less than the price of one premium cable channel. Nobody, neither Netflix nor Amazon, is going to continue to have the kind of library Netflix did during its peak as a catalog of old movies. The lax and low-priced licensing deals they got back then are never coming back, not with the rise of online streaming as a mainstream channel for media: everyone's building their own content silos, everyone's aiming for exclusive control of something so you pick theirs, and everyone's asking an arm and a leg for their streaming rights since there's multiple bidders with big budgets involved now. Netflix will have everything Disney puts out for the next few years; Amazon won't. Amazon will have all of HBO's back catalog for a while; Netflix won't. CBS All Access will have the new Star Trek TV series, nobody else will. Etc etc. That's the short-term future, and it's already locked up in contracts.
