Streaming services need to be federated, so there is a central search for content, and services are paid seamlessly for what's watched on their platforms. The customer barely needs to know who delivers the content.
I use JustWatch, I like it well enough.
Doesn't Roku, Comcast STB, and other OTT devices do just that? You speak into the remote or search. It spits out all possible streaming options to choose from, preferencing the services you have accounts or subscriptions for?
Comcast does it for sure. It's the only way I can get my parents to use streaming services. When they don't know they are doing it. It's expensive as hell, but it does work well.
Are you asking for usage based billing?
