It's a matter of convenience for me.  If I want to start watching a new series I can binge watch.  I know by buddies cable had SOME on demand shows, the rest of it you would have to record if you want to watch them when it is convienient  or [shudders] make sure you have an hour or a half every week where you can sit in front of the TV and watch your show when it airs, commercials and all.


I've got a smart TV so after linking each account to it you just switch apps and start watching the new Tick on Prime, then flip over to Netflix and watch a couple episodes of Ozark, then over to Hulu to watch last night's episode of The Goldbergs. It is pretty easy and seamless for me.  Honestly it is the same reason I'm not terribly opposed to digital copies of games and why i always get digital copy included when buying physical movies. Most of the movies I've bought in the last year still sit shrink wrapped because they were immediately available on Vudu after i bought them in the store.  Exceptions to that would be Dr. Strange or other movies that are bought partially because they are eye candy and I don't want any compression compromising the video.

It's not convenient when it's spread across 5 fucking apps lol. 

Do you also find your phone inconvernient? your PC? or do you have one program on each that does everything? It is so terribly dificult to hit 1 botton then scroll to another app and hit enter...again no different than the PS3 or PS4 where you go to your home screen and scroll to a different game then launch it. If you were entering login credentials each time you switched that might be a different story but that isn't a necessary step.
