It's incredible to watch them kill their own golden goose

Apparently it wasn't so much a "golden" goose.

They were all happy to let them run at below cost just gathering up market share.

Now they're trying to re-position to be profitable. Their subscriber numbers will definitely take a hit but they will have done the math.

Do you have any stats/resources that show that these streaming services are inherently unprofitable?
