Separation anxiety

With all the individual Studios separating their content from Netflix, what will become of Netflix?

Like Disney they will fail one by one and give up opting for the easy way to make money. People want one stop shop and most likely aren't going to pay $10 here $10 there, what's the point if you're paying $80 a month???? That's why Netflix works.

Netflix will thrive, provided they survive. Short term they are losing these services. The problem the individual studios doesn't seem to realize is that consumers don't want to pay for five to ten streaming services. They want to pay for one with most of the things they want to watch. Netflix should survive as their independent content will keep them afloat until the studio offerings are killed off due to lack of interest. Eventually, maybe even before they die, the studios will eventually strike deals with the independent streaming companies that survive.

Seen it coming long ago and I'm sure Netflix did too. Hence the "Original Content" they are now doing and even expanding. I think Netflix will continue to thrive especially as this economy remains mired in the dump (despite what Obama tells you) and yes, no one wants to maintain and pay for 5 different streaming subscriptions. Big Business would love that, of course.
