How long before some clever, enterprising individual negotiates a big reseller discounts with the main providers?
It's called cable. And it used to be $29.95 a month.So you subscribe to GarryFlix for $29.95 a month and get access to Netflix, Amazon, Disney and all the others.
I may need to work on the name.

I can't pay for 10 different streaming services, I will pay for 3 and then... let's say that a lot of people will resort to the old alternative ways of watching exactly what they want instead of paying full and suffering 90% of bad content.
Do basically all these services will get 5.99 a year from me as I skip from one service to the next binge watching.
This is way to go, I believe. I’ll keep a cheap grandfathered subscription like my directv now mostly for live sports, and Netflix as there are a ton of shows on there that I like to watch regularly. But all the rest I’m happy to start and stop monthly one at a time, and binge for that month like you said. It takes a bit more strategic planning, but well worth saving what could otherwise come out to hundreds of dollars more per year.Yes I said a year. I will have no loyalty to any one service. I wonder if they’ll make more or less this way.
Can I invent a word/phrase for 2019 - Binge jumping. The act of jumping from one provider to the next binging all they have to offer.
