That is what DVR is for. We do need more memory for DVRs.
I like watching.Stop and start watching a bit later in another room.Or a few hours later. Doing this with multiple shows as the mood strikes you.Wife comes in stop watching your guy show,start watching your “couple” show. You go to answer the phone from work she watches her “chick” show for 10 minutes. Harder to do with streaming.
I don’t see sports moving away from premium cable channels either.
