The torrent of content is making it tough for everybody to find and keep an audience. Even with more ways for people to watch, at some point and I'm guessing we're reaching it, people's time for watching that content will be used up. As you say, carve out an audience on a microbudget and nurture that niche. I've noticed that in other industries, the use of robots, etc. has, in my view, sharply impaired maintaining good customer relations. I think Hollywood has the same problem to some degree. That is, they seem to put stuff in front of people without really knowing if it's well crafted or if people want to watch it. I think this approach must inevitably fail.
I believe you're right. Art through the ages sot to make a personal connection, giving the people an experience that felt meaningful. We don't see that a lot, anymore.
