> The sellers in this discussion are multinational organizations with very well educated people working with access to tons of data. And also likely with layers of bureaucracy, internal and external politics, complex business relationships, and other avenues for dysfunction. > They've offered the very show we're talking about, GoT, for $15 per month Sorry I'm not trying to be offensive here but you are losing track of the discussion. My entire argument is that many distribution companies evidently do not care enough about offering a la carte consumption alternative to make the effort to price it reasonably, although the situation is improving as companies get their act together and actually decide to act on the market data they have. (Game of Thrones for example is now $25-$30 per season on Amazon Streaming). As such, the fact that anything might be available for a subscription at a reasonable market price is not relevant.
