"Streaming services have dramatically transformed the media landscape, allowing
consumers unparalleled access to vast libraries of content. However the
streaming landscape has become far more crowded in the past few years.

This increase in competition has created many challenges for streaming services
and resulted in many services recently reporting losses of both subscribers and
profits.

As part of recent challenges, multiple services have removed TV and film from
their libraries – in many cases, meaning they are gone forever, inaccessible to
any fan.

This has sparked debates and raised questions about consumers’ access to
content and the future positioning of streaming within the broader media
landscape."
