Don't you think it's a good thing if public money from the BBC is used to develop interesting programs instead of subsidizing Hollywood blockbusters? Who cares

Don't you think it's a good thing if public money from the BBC is used to develop interesting programs instead of subsidizing Hollywood blockbusters? Who cares if i can't watch Spiderman on BBC STREAM? I've got torrents for that :-)
More seriously, Netflix business model is deeply broken. Trying to replicate that at all cost with public money is doomed to failure. A decent alternative would be the Global License [0] which was at the center of french public debate 15 years ago. It's more or less the same model, but without trying to feed ~parasites~ shareholders on the way, and without stupid competition between 5 different streaming services you all need a subscription for.
