Comments are full of people saying it’s a service thing and not a price thing.

I feel like that’s a bit disingenuous. You can rent anything on Prime for a couple £ (I focus on rent as the “buy” has the deletion problem) in multiple video qualities.

I am not disagreeing with the service issues, but a large part of the problem is people not willing to pay what studios deem as market value.

Case in point - early streamers had less fragmentation and still had the same service problem, but they could consolidate at low price due to vc subsidy. And piracy went down.

Let’s not forget Netflix and Spotify were not profitable for ages.

So my money would be on price actually being the cardinal problem.
