Streaming on-demand is almost ready for prime time (pun slightly intended) - I think in another 2 years, the old cable model will be “dead man walking” in that they’ll still have the lion’s share of customers, but their days will be officially numbered, and they will suffer ever-decreasing customer bases as people cut the cord.
Amazon is pushing streaming hard!
