Disney and Comcast’s NBCUniversal have numerous means to earn fortunes, such as auctioning Iron Man knick-knack and Jurassic Park composition park rides, so the corporations’ income streams are not inherently linked to their recent streaming investments, Disney+ and Peacock. That’s not the issue for Netflix.
