What they mean is not that people aren’t streaming. Its that the profit margins in streaming are reaching a plateau so investors can’t profit nearly as much or as easily.
There’s leveling viewer rates and an increase in torrents so yeah, it is sorta dying because no one likes playing 90 dollars for 7 subscriptions that still don’t get you every show you want to watch.
I’m actually considering buying shows on Blu-ray and then ripping them into my media server. But Blu-rays are super expensive compared to paying for streaming for s few months, and I never know if I’ll actually watch something completely before I even start.
Streaming is dead? What, are we back to laserdisc and nobody told me?

You can go to your local thrift store and get DVD Videos and Blu-rays.
I get all my blank media from there.
Your local library may also have a collection of movies and shows available for checkout. CDs too
