It don't take a genius to see this will blow up in Hollywoods face sooner rather than later.

Eh. They all want a piece of the pie, like they always do when some new revenue stream comes along. But if x studio's streaming service goes under in however many years then they'll just go right back to licensing their content to other streaming services again. Apparently that's going to happen anyway with some content, even Disnee stuff, as they have pre-existing agreements with the likes of Netflix which means that some of their movies will actually head
back to Netflix for several years.
