After having sampled Disney+, HBOMax, Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime a fair bit in the past year, my take is that Netflix has the UX nailed. I can, for instance, "thumbs down" a recommendation. Some offerings I never want to see. Their catalog tends to the darker themes, and I'm not fond of that.

Hulu and Amazon Prime are mostly irrelevant to me. I'll probably axe the Hulu sub.

HBO has a few things I like. Disney+ targets the kids/family/lighter theme demographic tightly.

I think that the general provider landscape is a bit overdone; some consolidation would be welcomed by consumers, and any competitor that falls behind in offerings will crash exponentially.
