Maybe for the US but up here in Canada it’s hit and miss … they’ll have a lot of Star Trek shows but then skip some (including Prodigy)
All this complication just makes it all feel like the early 2000s all over again … everyone is just going to drift towards pirating because it won’t be worth it for everyone to buy this service, that service and managed four or five services to watch their favourite shows. It’s much easier to just pay for a VPN and torrent all the stuff you want for one price.
I’m going to guess that in about five years, streaming companies will collapse into a few providers selling majority of content for a more manageable price … either that or they’ll find ways to severely lock down the internet for everyone.
Or it will be like the DS9 alternate timeline of 2025 and we’ll need to have an internet pass in order to get online to do anything.
