Most movie studios are owned by the same parent company as a streaming service

Warner Bros and HBO. During the worst of the pandemic, all WB movies went directly to HBO, except for Tenet, because Chris Nolan is a bit of a prig about the "theater experience."

Netflix has one that gives them access to Sony movies once they've left theaters. Not sure how long its good for though.

Go to a site like JustWatch and filter on movies released in the last couple years. You can then browse and filter on various streaming bittons to see what movies you would get with any combination of subscriptions.

No, it depends on the movie, but:

Amazon owns Amazon studios and MGM+/Epix.

Netflix owns Netflix studios.

Comcast owns NBC/Universal, which owns Peacock and part of Hulu.

Disney owns Disney+ and the other part of Hulu.

Fox owns Tubi.

National Amusements owns CBS and Paramount, which own Paramount+, Showtime, and PlutoTV.

Lionsgate owns Starz.

Warner-Discovery owns HBO Max and Discovery+.

Apple owns AppleTV.

Google owns Youtube+.

AMC owns AMC+, IFC, Sundance, Shudder, and Acorn tv.

Netflix has a deal with Sony (one of the few studios that doesn't have its own streaming service).

Sony's films will usually end up on Netflix four months after theatrical debut. Exceptions are mega-hits like Spider-Man: No Way Home.
