So you basically want cable-tv back?
I don't see it happening. Music isnt like TV, most people don't watch stuff more than once, or if they do its years a part, when they decide "you know I might like to see Deep Space Nine again"
Nothing being tied to a specific night of the week, or time of day has pretty much killed the water-cooler social aspect to TV, and that has nothing to do with the UIs of the streaming services.
The reality is there is just to much TV to watch. Few shows are really 'good enough' to justify actually setting up another subscription to view. I am a little sad to miss out on Strange New Worlds, but I am not pickup Paramount+ just for that, nor am I going to try to do it for a month and binge it. It just isn't worth the trouble. There is plenty to watch on Prime and Disney I already get with other bundles. If ever I hit a few weeks span of not finding any of their first-party content being pushed interesting, they have massive back catalogs of great old titles.
"Must See TV" was social phenomenon and streaming and to a lesser degree effortless DVRs before broke it. We are never going back to 'did you see the Star Trek last night' or 'you caught Seinfeld Thursday right?'
