Every entertainment entity wants to keep all their content to themselves and not share the profits with Netflix, HBO, Comcast etc. Let the consumer decide approach.
If Dane's prediction of a decade before we get another consolation or shift in the paradigm on how we receive content. I think tech will decide that for the market before these other content and consumer demands force consolidation.
I come at this from a tech prospective. Automation, Big Data and AI will have matured into the main stream within 5 years. EVERYTHING will change including how we get our entertainment content.

I think in the interim this could go a couple of ways, people are finally realizing cutting the cord isn't cheap and is more fragmented and maybe more expensive than cable so they may start going back to cable.
Or all this fragmentation will lead to piracy being back in vogue.
