Producing quality has been democratized.  AMC actually proves the point.  House of Cards proves the point.  Mad Men proves the point.  A channel is just a number.  Put out great content and the people will come.  Youtube millionaires everywhere are producing (relatively) high quality content and aggregating lots of users.. it all proves the point.  If it is good, the marketing avenues are plentiful.  It will get seen, and it will attract viewers.

That's all there needs to be - a level playing field.  Why on earth should it be any other way?  There simply is no longer a need for an intermediary distributor.  There was a time when that infrastructure and network was extremely valuable.  Now it is just another pipe delivering 1's and 0's.

The next Breaking Bad can come from anywhere and I think that's great.  HBO can spend a fortune on GoT and still make money.  I think that is great too.  I fail to see the downside, and I definitely fail to see the logic that would lead to a diminution in quality.
