How is streaming more expensive than cable? Am I obligated to pay disney+ to see something on TV+?

This is basically an article bought and paid for by cable. Streaming is only expensive if you own everything. The benefit is you have far more options and control over the content you pay for. There is no "crash". These services are all stable or growing still. Cable is still what is dying though the industry will try all it can to presume otherwise.
