That's what the market needs from these platforms. instead we are getting netflix content mill 12,000 medicore TV shows / year and as soon as one becomes popular and the stars ask for money they get the axe.
The #1 content, by a gigantic margin, on D+ is...

The Simpsons.

Like by a country mile. Viewership for The Simpsons is something like 10X more than the next most popular anything on D+.

This whole spending money on new content and hoping millions of people pony up $10/mth isn't working.

There's a reason why cable/broadcast TV was chock full of commercials.
