Why is a channel needed? You can go straight from copyright holder to viewer.

So you want to go to every individual studio to watch movies and TV and pay separately?

Makes no difference to me, I just spend a few seconds searching the title and pay and watch what I want when I want. But I also do not watch much.

If enough people want bundled content and are willing to pay enough to make it happen, then content owners will sell it. If not, then the buyers and sellers do not agree on price.
