The streaming mess is absolutely not "a la carte". A la carte would be having one or more places where you can go, select a show, pay for that show and then have access to that show. What we have now is multiple competing subscription bundles. And for many people, there are only a few shows (not necessarily the same for all people) that are interesting out of a bundle. You do not get the choice to only pay for what you want to watch, you have to pay for the entire bundle. But now instead of there existing only one universal bundle for everyone, there are multiple competing bundles.
