    There’s way more money to be made through cablefication.

    But then again, cable is dead for a reason.

      Yes, and the reason cable is dead is specifically because streaming offered a more affordable, convenient, and ad-free option. Now that it’s pretty much the only legal game in town and every greedy fuck out there is trying to start their own streaming service the cablefication is well underway. You think the c-suite types give a single fuck about the long-term viability of their services? lol no. They’re here for short term profits. They’ll be carried off into the sunset by their golden parachute while you’re paying $45/mo to watch commericals on Netflix.
