Why is there not a marketplace for video content like there is for almost everything we consume? Why are still selling Netflix shows? Can't Netflix just pay content creators per view? Or how about let content creators price however they want, marketplace takes a X% cut?https://twitter.com/ttmygh/status/1158551232153362433 …

Video seems so fragmented compared to retail and it's unclear to me why that is. Why is there a Hulu, Netflix, Prime Video, and Disney when we just have Amazon?

It's probably due to the supply side. Consumers would love a single service. For free content people gravitate to one platform (YouTube). Content creators don't want to give too much power to Netflix so they're trying to create their own platforms.

Another factor: Most goods are commodities. Content isn't, especially the most desirable shows/movies, so there's monopolistic competition.

Is PewDiePie a commodity whose content is easily replaced by Logan Paul? Youtube has monopolistic market share in user generated video.

I don't consume much YouTube but the major YouTubers feel same-y to me, much like how reality TV shows feel alike. Even aesthetically they imitate each other.

Tell that to a 15 year old girl. I think you were right. It's a supplier issue. Bill Gurley articulated it best.
