They are not the same. 'Linear' means a fix schedule; 'streaming' is a method of delivering data - that data might be a linear TV schedule or it might be an individual selection from a library. The BBC presents all of its content by way of streaming *right now* - its linear schedule is streamed via the iplayer.
As for the rest of your post, well, several of us have been trying to explain to you for months now, where your assumptions are faulty - you continue to be unwilling or unable to separate your personal preferences from economic reality, so there's little point rehearsing it all again.
There will still be a broadcast TV service 20 years from now. I'd put money on it.
