Comment on Streaming Has Reached Its Sad, Predictable Fate | What should I watch? is now a much easier question than How do I watch it?

Streaming services need to be federated, so there is a central search for content, and services are paid seamlessly for what’s watched on their platforms. The customer barely needs to know who delivers the content.

Doesn’t Roku, Comcast STB, and other OTT devices do just that? You speak into the remote or search. It spits out all possible streaming options to choose from, preferencing the services you have accounts or subscriptions for?

  Comcast does it for sure. It’s the only way I can get my parents to use streaming services. When they don’t know they are doing it. It’s expensive as hell, but it does work well.

My Samsung TV kind of let’s you do that by searching though the TVs UI and it telling you if and where it’s available. I rarely use it.

Are you asking for usage based billing?
