The main problem of PR: copying is pointless, doing your own is unprofitable. And until that changes, the franchise is doomed to suffer.

It's still a large hole in the market that relies entirely on their direct competitor sparking enough interest.
While Sentai and KR is easier to access now that it's officially streamed, what's being streamed are older seasons with no merch to back it up.
The Henshin Hero genre is ride or die on toy sales, so residuals from DVDs or ads on streaming are nothing compared to getting people to buy the mechs.

If a company in the US isn't going to market Power Rangers, Toei should at least make a marketing push for their Sentai subs.
