It's always been a balance between getting the stuff instantly and for a charge or waiting a few minutes and having to look for the item and maybe not being able to find it.

If you're paying for it and you're still not able to find it then there is no benefit to streaming. All they had to do was make streaming just a little bit better and experience than piracy. It's actually a pretty low bar because they've got all the access and the infrastructure to be able to do this but lacking that, well, like my computer science teacher always used to say " information wants to be free "
