The Streaming Wars: A Nightmare to Keep Track Of

You're really gonna be hit hard in this battle while most folks may subscribe to a service for one show and then cancel when the series is over. Parents are gonna feel trapped and obligated to sign up for everything and kids are the perfect customer, they get hooked on a brand they don't get tired of repeats and parents are not about to fire the babysitter to compete with Disney's massive library. HBO Maxes tempting families with things like classic Looney Tunes and it's the only home for new Sesame Street. Apple TV Plus tries with its own educational puppet show and it's got Snoopy and the gang.

Netflix has plenty of cool new stuff with dr. Seuss and Shira but they spend billions over the years with partnerships to keep you from canceling analysts are seeing young families subscribing to the most services and parents are left dizzy trying to keep track of where everything is. Which brings us to the next pain point, where the heck is my show? These services are all grabbing the rights to your shows from each other, and we're a title winds up is anyone's guess. Disney owns Marvel but not all Marvel movies are always on Disney Plus, there's a lot of DreamWorks on Netflix but will then be flying over to a peacock the MBC streaming service since they're all owned by Universal and the CBS Viacom merger also makes you question what's gonna happen with Collodion content in the future.

It all has to do with who has the rights to a show, some deals were made long before the streaming wars began and they have to honor those deals for the next few years. Some shows on Disney Plus will even disappear temporarily because of these rights deals that were made long ago. Here one day gone the next without warning about gaps in the library even a show downloaded to your device could disappear, it's a fun reminder that you don't actually own anything. For all your pain since when do we have to care about who owns the rights to what programs?

This means that it's gonna be even more important than ever for streaming devices like the Roku or the amazon firetv to have a great interface to help you search for those shows wherever they vanish off to. I know some of you may say hey Bridget lots of choices good right, I mean beyond Disney Plus an Apple TV + + HP Lomax and Amazon Prime video and Hulu and CBS and peacock and YouTube TV and ESPN plus and noggin and PBS KIDS. Okay maybe they're just way too many choices this alyc our future we asked for is becoming a nightmare to keep track of and to pay for.

Which means consumers will be looking for simplification, they'll be looking for bundles, you know bundles the things folks were trying to escape when they cut cable in the first place. Disney Plus offers a bundle with Hulu and ESPN Plus according to Reuters Showtime is talking with providers like Amazon Apple and Roku to offer consumers some kind of bundle Warner media has HBO Macs and a separate streaming service called AT&T TV as if that wasn't confusing which will be offered as a bundle sometime in the year 2020.

In the quest to break up our cable bundles we somehow are whiny backup in bundle world now we're not just going back to bundles we're going back to appointment television instead of binge watching a new show all in one sitting. We're starting to see a trend of shows going back to the classic television format of releasing one new episode a week, several Disney Plus shows we'll be doing that including the mandalorian along with many of the big titles on Apple TV plus.

There will still be some shows you can binge but you got to keep track of which days your show airs and which shows are worth your time. Frankly we will all just have to come to terms with how it is going to be a lot to keep track of, you can't watch it all and we're gonna have to embrace the FOMO, the fear of missing out, like before the good old days when you actually had a pick a show to watch and you couldn't record everything you wanted. Welcome to the streaming wars saga season 1, it's a new age that sort of feels like the old age.

And that's Hollywood for you always rebooting alright so let me count all the things I got going I'm gonna get Disney Plus but I can't just have Disney Plus I still need cable with Disney jr cuz my girls like hooked on this new Rocketeer reboot it's really cute, I have HBO now for Sesame Street PBS KIDS for Daniel Tiger Nagin has Peppa Pig and Dora and paw Patrol so am I gonna get Apple TV I mean I think my daughter would love Snoopy but she doesn't know who Snoopy is and grandma just gave her a Snoopy mug and so I guess she needs to know Snoopy isn't Who am I kidding there goes all my money
