  • Over the past 25 years, Netflix revolutionized the film and television industry. The company amassed over 220 million subscribers across 190 countries, billions of hours watched for show Stranger Things and racked in 226 award wins. However, in 2022, things are looking rather different for the storied streamer while fighting an uphill battle to remain relevant in the streaming wars. In Q2 of 2022, Netflix lost nearly 1 million subscribers as rival Disney+ added roughly 14 million new subscribers.

    The only thing I dislike about Netflix is that they don't give a lot of their originals time to grow... Not every show can blow up immediately like Stranger Things or Squid games. Stop cancelling shows after one season.

      I think the binge format has something to do with that. People watch in different rhythms, hard to find someone who is in the same episode as you. If you wait too much, there’s already something else to watch. And you have to choose between watching something your friends have already watched or save it for later and watch the new thing. This way shows don’t have time to build momentum.

      Same here. Before the other companies started their own streaming services and take away their contents from Netflix, it was definitely best place to whatever you wanted to watch. As the media reporter mentioned, you could basically cut your expensive cable(cord-cutter) and effectively live off just having Netflix because it was super cheaper than cable and it has all the content in the world. But now all contents are separately distributing among other streaming services which if you subscribe to them all can cost together the same expensive price as a regular basic cable.

    All the hate Netflix gets lately but at the end of the day they have better adult oriented content than D+. The Crown, Cobra Kai, Narcos, Lupin, Cyberpunk etc. As well as it'll randomly have a great hit like Squid Game, or Stranger Things. It has great foreign language content like Attorney Woo. As well they have a lot of interesting reality tv and game shows. D+ has a lot of stuff that's nostalgic or you can have for your kids but in terms of original new content it's just milking Marvel and Star Wars both of which are probably over milked at this point.

      Netflix only need to use a portion of its $17 billion annual content budget to produce big-budget movies or tv series to keep its subscribers. Assuming a budget of $100 to $200 million each, Netflix can easily produce one big-budget production every month. The remaining money can be used to buy third-parties content and mass-produce the other nonsense.

    Netflix has continuously raised prices while simultaneously losing content, shifting away from the binge model, (one of the defining differences over cable,) and infamously cancelling new IPs with insane speed and frequency. Of course they're losing subs!
    Streaming being binge-able, and consolidated into 1 or 2 sources for an affordable price was the main thing getting ppl to stop pirating. Now companies are showing too much greed and have fractured the streaming landscape and charging silly amounts, (and thinking it acceptable to constantly raise prices). Who can afford to actually subscribe to all of these? So congrats, instead of having everyone subscribed to 1 or 2 and sharing the profits every month, ..now you just get someone subbed for a couple months, then cancel and switch to another, and cycle through as they watch things, ..or they just password share or pirate.
    Focus on customers and profits will follow. Focus on profit and customers will leave.

    • @zuenseow
      @zuenseow Год назад +11

      I will say for the decision of whether or not to use the binge model, it depends on how the title in question might be released elsewhere.
      Anime fans in the US use the term “Netflix jail” for exclusive titles that are being aired week-to-week on TV in Japan or even on Netflix there (or other regions that aren’t the US), but are being withheld from US audiences until some time after the show/season has finished so it could be released in one bingeable drop. They failed to take into account the expectations of anime audiences stateside for how week-to-week releases are handled by competitors like Crunchyroll that release episodes hours after they air in Japan, and were largely clowned on by such fanbases.
      Though nowadays, titles like the recently released Cyberpunk Edgerunners have successfully implemented the binge model because it was released in all regions in that format. So, the lesson for Netflix here is that, especially for international titles, they should adjust their release format to be consistent across all regions. If a title is being released week-to-week in its originating country, don’t make some segments of the world to wait to be able to binge, killing discussions or otherwise losing audiences to pirated sources in the meantime. And likewise, if a show is dropped all at once, then it definitely should stay that way across all regions.

    6:55 right there is where the problems start. These companies wanted to launch their own streaming service, but then because its on their own service you have to still pay a monthly subscription just to watch their content. So like for example if you wanted to watch any Disney Movie, you cannot do that because all of it is on Disney Plus. You will never find any Disney content on Netflix and you still have to keep paying money just to see your shows but they are on different services. It causes nothing but problems and having to spend more money.

    Netflix needs to invest in quality writing and bold story telling, thats the niche no other studio/streaming service is willing to bet on overall. Having a handful of fantastic shows and movies across multiple streamers tells us that each streamer simply wants to have one or two golden children that bolsters the streamer's image with award badges, but still would rather fill their library will names and legacy titles over quality of storytelling. Disney has way more legacy titles and on-the-table money to play with, they are hard to compete with when it comes to producing blockbuster standard movies or cinematic series, but it bloats its own library by abusing the legacy titles, creating an oversaturation of one-note formulaic content that needs to fit into an assigned pre-destined universe which in addition to the eventual fatigue fans and casual viewers will get from such content, the programs are bound to collapse in on themselves through varying quality and nonsensical and unnecessarily plot models that are inherently borne from the limitations of necessary cohesion and progression through the universe (not to mention the family friendly boundaries most of their shows have to dance within). Netflix has been wasting money as of late with unnecessary blockbuster movies such as Rednotice and Grey, which are made for the summer cinema going experience you just don't get with the stay at home TV watching model that streaming produces, no matter how big your TV. They should take a note from A24 and focus on diverse, creative, risk-taking content that offers the writers and directors a sandbox for filmmaking creativity, that's what's missing; quality and that sense of uniqueness you leave the movie or show with where the viewer instantly knows they wouldn't have gotten that experience anywhere else, and they'll keep coming back for it.

That way, those getting the free password will have to deal with ads, but at least they are still getting Netflix for free while the one paying the bill still gets to enjoy Netflix without any ads.

    Both Netflix and Disney+ should rethink their strategy in non-English speaking countries. In Slovenia, they do not offer subtitles in Slovenian language. Disney+ had subtitles and dubbing when movies were in the cinema, but online, only English. So it is useless for families with young children.

    Netflix is more than juts a content streaming service, it's a tech company, they innovate and create better technology, that's why when you watch a show on Netflix it streams smoothly while in other services it's a lot slow in their interface, with bad looking quality compression, etc, they even has a lot of projects and information one can use in your own programming stuff
