I wonder if we’ll see some kind of cable box equivalent where private companies will go ahead and bundle a subset of all the content on the streaming service into a package to sell you. Possibly subsidized with ads…

This is kind of what Roku does, yeah? Each Roku device comes pre-loded with a suite of streaming services installed (but you still have to subscribe to each one...) and the remote even has dedicated buttons for whatever streaming services are paying Roku the most at the moment.
