That way I can pick the service I want without losing the content I want, and the content creators still get paid for their content while keeping prices for most people low.

God, it’s cable TV packages all over again. Streaming was supposed to destroy this problem, not become it!

The problem with cable TV was that I still can’t watch what I want, when I want. With streaming, I can. But the more services there are with exclusives, the more apps I need to get the content I want.
If I can pick the content I want at any streaming service, then the choice becomes about which streaming service I want, not what content I want. I hate juggling apps, and I’d rather pay a bit extra on one app to get more content than continually switch apps.
