CordCutters is a place for those who have cut the Cable or Satellite TV cord, and want to know what other legal services are available. No piracy talk please, it could get the person posting it in trouble with the authorities and could get the community banned on some servers, so please only talk about products and services that are legal to use.

Right? FAANG has been a thing for over a decade, and the N is Netflix.

Netflix won't be able to compete for long though, as Disney is basically buying most of the popular content. The way content licensing works (with exclusives, etc) just doesn't allow for a free market. The only way to have a free market is if all streamers have the same content library and they have to compete on quality, service, etc.
