In the future, it'll be exclusive to the CBMF Streaming Network ($7.99/month).

I'm grateful that music didn't end up fragmented into a multitude of walled gardens like video. You can listen to almost all popular music with 2 popular flat-rate services. It could have turned out much, much worse.

Podcasts are the current battleground. I can't predict how that will turn out.

The reason music got saved is, eventually, all signal gets transferred over two cables. It is simply not possible to gate it.

Video is much more complicated.

This doesn't make sense to me. What do you mean?

Eventually all video gets transferred over one cable, HDMI.
