    “The marketplace is really challenged with too many players in the market,” Zaslav said. “When people turn on — the consumers put on their TV, it’s a terrible consumer experience. In almost every market in the world, there’s just way too many choices. And you’re googling, ‘Where is it? How do I get from one to the other? How do I get into that platform?’”

    lol the problem is on their faces and they can’t see it.

    Too many choices is not a problem, just like a monopoly is not a solution. Exclusivity deals are the problem. If most content was cross platform, this wouldn’t be so awful like it is today.

    They’re reaping what they sowed.

      Well, that, or participate in ways to discover shows. Netflix stubbornly refuses to be included in AppleTV’s search function.

      Apparently it’s not difficult to do since they accidentally submitted a version of their app with it enabled.
