Netflix, Hulu, Amazon and even HBO are middlemen. Even much of their “original” content is produced by other production companies and licensed.
Are you expecting each production company to have their own service some day?
- tomnipotent 6y ago> Netflix, Hulu, Amazon and even HBO are middlemen This is how the entertainment industry has worked for many decades, including the big studios, in that they're the financiers and marketing. So they pay for and own the content, have exclusive distribution of the content, and you can't sidestep them to get to the content since it wouldn't exist with out them. Does that sound like middlemen?
