    Likely the same thing that has happened to every other industry.

    • Someone comes out with a disruptive low cost subscription model, consumers like it because it’s so low cost and anything that isn’t on it they can still buy.
    • People buy less, content producers have to move to the same subscription model to survive.
    • The low cost of the subscription model can’t pay for all the content that is normally made by that industry, creatives can’t find backing to create content anymore, creative struggle to get paid between there being less money and corporate greed snatching what is left
    • Quality drops, output drops, no one is happy.
