I didnt say cable was coming back. I said something like cable probably is, though. Which would be much better than paying for 100 streaming sites each Basically, something that packages them

Which would be better. Id rather package stuff like cable than having to buy a bunch of individual channels just because each channel has a few shows I like to watch

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.
