TV’s post-cable future has turned into a “hyper-fragmented mess”

  • “What happened to the glorious, consumer-friendly future of TV?” asks Kevin Roose. “We were told that the internet would usher in a golden era of streaming video, and that incredible shows and movies would be a click away through low-cost, easy-to-use services.” He adds: “Instead, we’ve rushed headlong into a hyper-fragmented mess, with a jumble of on-demand services that, added up, cost more and often offer less than the old cable bundle.”
