Abstract
This text offers a journalistic reflection on the future directions of streaming platforms. It primarily focuses on the future of Netflix, today perceived as a leader in this sector but, in reality, building its position on shaky foundations. It appears that entities affiliated with major media conglomerates may prove to be stronger, and their further consolidation and its consequences constitute the second main topic of this text. (Non-reviewed material).
