Cable has actually started doing that.
Multiple cable companies have deals with different streaming services, and are integrating the streaming service into their own architecture. So you can theoretically be on your cable/tv and jump to Hulu or Peacock or whatever. And then combining that with package service deals (like TV/streaming/Internet/phone/etc).
A friend of mine has Peacock and Pluto TV as part of his Optimum/Cablevision package, Verizon FiOS offers Hulu as an option, and we'll probably see more of this in the future as various streaming services all struggle to survive on their own. It's entirely possible that most cable companies evolve into becoming launching platforms for streaming and Internet service providers to offer an integrated experience for people who don't feel like subscribing to and setting up dozens of different streaming services.
Thats true. I actually have used my own cable provider for streaming some of the channels in the past. Like HBO Max (Now called Max, so believe)
And it honestly makes sense to move in that direction Which is just a new version of cable

Theres nowhere near 100 streaming services.
At first, that was more of an exaggeration But I decided to look it up and found this

Which makes sense considering that like every channel basically has their own
