True, but this is also because there's no Steam Storefront option for people who like to watch TV.

Yeah, maybe something like one company that could aggregate all of the separate services into one subscription. They could use a collective bargaining strategy to keep the price of each subscription down. Maybe they could even bundle together the actual physical hardware and maintain the infrastructure required to get the signals to us as well!

How would they do that, some sort of cable?

I said steam storefront, so I don't mean specifically asking for a subscription service. I mean if I want to watch a TV show now, I have to subscribe to a service. There's no option to buy it digitally in most cases.
