They’re getting some Disney content back. I’m not sure if this was intentional by the OP or not, but Archer is one of those. Also How I Met Your Mother, Horn Improvement, Lost, other stuff.
Still nowhere near old Netflix, but it could be the start of a trend.
Maximum monetization will see a rotation of content between platforms. People mostly watch stuff when it is new on the platform and then after that it’s just a trickle unless some news comes out about it.
By licensing their bullshit to different providers they take a little bit of revenue from other platforms and the other platforms get more engagement. They basically have to play nice or spend a ton of cash constantly making more shows- which we’ve seen fail again and again despite huge budgets.
Well it’s also a somewhat natural reaction of the market. We went from basically just one service provider with many different publishers, to almost 1:1. I’ve seen some speculation that some of these services may collapse. It may be wishful thinking, but if for example Peacock fails and CBS just licenses their properties out that seems like an improvement.
What I really would love to see is the end of exclusive content. I want to see service providers compete more on the quality of their service than the content of their libraries. A variety of tiers that allow different numbers of simultaneous screen watching, different quality levels, the ability to download and view offline, better UI’s, different content sorting, filtering, and recommendation options. Different pricing structures: maybe pay-per-view, ad supported, and of course monthly and annual subscriptions. Maybe even partner with low to mid-budget content creators like Nebula. Steam and Epic can have the same games on different platforms: why can’t Netflix and Hulu have the same shows?
I’m also tired of seeing stuff completely vanish. Disney’s “vault” has always felt like a flaw in copyright law. If it’s not available for the public to consume, that should qualify as failure to defend IP and automatically become public domain. But that’s a whole other issue
