Those 2 are irrelevant to tubes. They would have existed even if tubes were not invented. Especially the last one.

Just take the average amount of what average person spends on memberships and you would see that it is way lower now than in pretube times.
The fact that some big players consolidated their revenue shares does not mean it is better.

100 people making 50$ each or 10 people making 150$ each and 90 people making 5$ each.
In total the pie got smaller, despite the fact that few big players got bigger slices.
