Sure about that? HBO, Showtime, Starz, sports packages, etc. Plenty of evidence that they _will_ do exactly that. I hope it doesn't go that way, but there's a reason we ended up with cable in its current form.
- SteveNuts 8y agoEventually it'll end up just like a bundled cable subscription. Anecdotally I don't know anyone that pays for all of those services + an Amazon video and Netflix. Most of the people I know have Netflix + maybe one premium channel add-on subscription.
- stevula 8y agoLots of people have Amazon Prime which includes the video streaming service.

- gremlinsinc 8y agoYeah, we have Netflix, and I get HBO for about 3 months/per year till I'm caught up on the major shows, except this year (No game of thrones).
