I think a lot of people believe its saving them money, but in reality its actually costing more and at the same time lower quality than it would be with a correctly-priced pay-per-view model. You can't compare to blockbuster because that system was old and there have been many things that can bring the cost down these days.

Yes, that's why streaming video services have some quality content, and its why they price them so cheaply - so its worth it despite the fact that most of the content is low quality and lacks a variety of quality content. If they increased the options available, they'd have to charge more money than its worth to cover the costs of that extra content. If they increased the general quality, same thing. There is a limit to how large these subscription content networks can get before it must fragment.
