Got it, but that's not their business model, at least currently.

Streaming services like YouTube TV for example, only need to worry about the cost of content and servers providing content over the internet and their customer service. Cable companies have these costs plus the all the outside cable infrastructure to your home and maintence. I can tell you after working for Verizon, this cost is huge and the revenue from internet services no where near comes close to covering that cost.
