Theoretically, having multiple streaming platforms should be good, as it prevents a monopoly. Problem is, they all have monopolies, on specific shows. Choosing the streaming services you want isn't about choosing the better product, but on which shows you have. All streaming shows should have all shows available. That's the only way to properly decide which service is worth paying for

isn't about choosing the better product, but on which shows you have.

But you can argue that part of what makes a streaming service a good product, is the literal product they produce, their content.

A streaming service's product is the service of streaming stuff to you. It's not a studio. Studios make those products. The streaming services give you a platform to watch them. Their product is their website
