    Probably like Disney/Hulu

    They’ll try a bundle deal to see if people pay for it, then if not slowly bleed shows from one service to another.

    Maybe eventually combine them but they’ll try to keep paying for both as long as possible

      I bet it will be more like Prime where they display everything they own to tempt you, but there’s an increasing number of additional subscriptions you actually need to access the content.
