NETFLIX
Is anyone paying attention to the Netflix story?
As an internet addict this is how i view the netflix fight.
Netflix vs. Hollywood
Netflix one problem is their limited selection of movies and they are months behidn DVD release dates. The reason this is is because Hollywood has outstanding deals with Video Stores to only give them rights to release the movies until its okay for Netflix.
Netflix has A LOT of moeny. 899 a month and millions upon millions of users. It makes Blizzard seem like an ant. They have all thsi money but can't get current movies.
Netflix vs. Internet Providers
Netflix is undoubtedely one of the biggest bandwidth hogs so internet provides hate Netflix. Comcast is battling with them over Net Neutrality and other nonsense litigation to curb Netflix.
Comcast even hates the FCC who recently came up with the requirement of 25mbs interent speed. They don't want change at all. And why would they, they rule all?
Netflix wants to introduce SUPER HIGH DEF streaming, the only issue is that limimted capabilities for our internet infastracture.
Netflix is battlign back by
POACHING HOLLYWOOD TALENT
Keven Spacey, Adam Sandler are the biggest recruits with many monre to come. NETFLIX has money money money with moneym oney moeny coming in.
NETFLIX IS MAKING ORIGINAL TV SHOWS AND MOVIES
IF you don't give us your shitty hollywood movies, we'll use our money to create better original programming. Remember when You try to dela with BlockBuster? We are the internet. We have the idea of mass nodes. You can't beat our infastracture. Netflix will rule all. HOllywood and the Established Internet cannot slow it down, despite how hard they try.
They wish they realized the power of nodes before they tried to control distrubition
Netflix is teh beginning.

Comcast is scum
Almost all telecoms everywhere are scum |

NFLX doesn't actually have all that much money. In fact, their revenue is comparable to Activision/Blizzard (ATVI) ($6billion vs $4.5 billion) and their net income is actually about 1/4 of what Activision/Blizzard makes as Netflix margins are terrible and they have very high content expenses.

There is no such thing as "poaching talent" as an actor. Every movie/TV show you do is through a different production studio. Netflix wants to beat HBO, to do that they need original content, which they can finally afford now after all these years. It's weird, like 10 years ago when I first signed up for Netflix using the DVD in the mail thing, I got into an impromptu conversation with a Netflix customer service rep for some reason. At that time, and we're talking like when Netflix streaming first came out and they had maybe 100 old shitty movies available to stream, this guy went on and on about how Netflix's vision has always been as a streaming provider, and that this whole DVD mail thing is just to help build revenue and loyalty for the inevitable. I remember thinking back then how ambitious the idea was, just surprised that some Tier 1 guy on the phone had the inside scoop. |
