   You know, that would be a good way for Disney to go. They've already set up   
   a streaming service that will go online sometime in the near future. They   
   could produce a show series where each episode acts as a compilation of   
   stories that allows them to create quick in-canon stories to expand on   
   the Star Wars universe. Something similar to the old Tales from the   
   Crypt show, but maybe without a central character to introduce things.   
   It just all appears to happen organically.
