Are you talking about Netflix? I mean they are really cheap. I dunno why someone would pay per episode instead of having a subscription. I mean 9 bucks are less than the transaction fees which bitcoin had during the Bullrun. But I would love to see Netflix accept cryptos.
Pay-per-view at a fraction of the cost sounds great to me, especially since TV/movie licensing means you have to use different services to watch different titles. I rarely watch TV. Maybe a few times a month when someone suggests a random movie or documentary (which often isn't on Netflix anyway). I do have a Netflix subscription, but it's a waste since I hardly ever use it. I only pay the subscription so it's there when I need it.
I definitely see a use case for ad-free video and music streaming.
Micro transactions can even be used for streamed content providers. A hypothetical scenario would be to pay per second of viewing for instance. How many times have you rented a video online and started watching it and then decided that it was crap and then stopped watching it. >
The pay-per-use concept is exactly what micro payments was meant for and this is ideal for the Lightning Network.
