Ben Hall: I feel that paramount has a very specific offering- it’s the Star Trek TV service. All old and new, the only place it’s available- that at least seems like a viable model, particularly when they aren’t producing so many new shows (and when they do, not that many episodes)

And now the counter point is like the 'Lionsgate streaming service: no we don't know what that covers either'

I’m assuming (in addition to first mover advantage and ZIRP) what really made Netflix work is for a long time they had very low content costs because the studios were too dumb to know what they had

Like Paramount plus has a surprising amount of stuff but why bother with them when you can just browse netflix or Prime for something interesting
