they want to pivot into becoming a production company production companies are threatened by this

I thought it was the opposite, where all the production companies saw $$$ in Netflix's business model and Netflix started producing to fill in their content because it was getting a little sparse for a minute. idk

Yeah you're right, it was a realization for companies like Disney; "why are we letting them profit from our stuff when we can do it in our own terms?"

I'm surprised music companies are not doing the same with Spotify, but I guess most of the music is under UMG (I think) anyway.
