While I agree about the likely outcome, I will point out that consumers have been

This fragmentation of streaming services _IS_ the direct result of that request.

It’s unbundled service, exactly what they have been asking for.

Perhaps, but I'm not entirely sure consumers wanted to spend US$10/month

Perhaps, as consumers, we were fairly ill-thought in assuming studios
and streaming providers wouldn't treat content like it's minerals.
