I accept the back catalogue isn't as good as these standalone services but personally I'd sooner pay less and wait for the back shows to come around on boxsets.

No way would I pay £120 a year for HBO and £120 for Showtime in fact I'd have to think twice at half that.
Yes, with careful selection of content providers, I think you can get a decent selection for your money, and maybe drop some of your TV packages to offset them.

A pretty good combination if you don't want to spend too much is Freeview + Netflix + Amazon Prime + Now TV entertainment package. You can access all of this for about £20 per month, which is very good indeed in my book.

Things will get better with time and ultimately there will be an amazing choice of new and older content.
