Netflix was neat in the beginning.

Now they've outed themselves as communists/globalists with all the anti white bullshit they have

>Dear white people
>Hardly any TV shows or movies in their catalog are from before 1999, there wasn't enough anti white male bashing and nig nogs portrayed as geniuses back then

Reed Hastings is a shabbos goy and ultimate cuck

Also they made streaming way more affordable due to their own customized communication protocols.

Heard about this on network programming lecture. (cs student here)

Also Netflix has other content not just Netflix originals. HBO wants you to pay 5-9 bucks a month (no idea what the price point is) just for HBO content. If that's the model the big networks take on then they will fail hard. I can get Netflix hulu and amazon prime together for less than a regular cable subscription, let alone all the premium content on top of that. their business model no longer makes sense or is profitable

So they remade UDP? Wow what great innovation

>>1808818
What? Browsers don't support custom protocols.

>how far Netflix has been able to be competitive with HBO

Memes pushed Netflix to the spotlight. Their market share might be considerably-sized, but their retention times and their catalog suck. They need to work that out.

>It's a revolutionary business concept.

Indeed. It's visionary by all means -- All forms of broadcasting will be done through the web fifty or a hundred years from now. Maybe sooner in advanced western countries.

>HBO did it in reverse when it began.

HBO is running out of steam and their Netflix rip-off initiative failed to boot. They're still prominent today, but twenty years from now they'll become irrelevant, that is if they continue to exist (refer to Blockbuster).

Aside from originals, Netflix and Amazon Prime have tons of overlap. If Amazon Prime didn't have free shipping, originals, and HBO shows, it wouldn't be necessary to have both.

>>1808923
As long as HBO produces good original content, they'll be relevant. They have enough momentum to survive for a couple of decades, but they'll have to adapt to the digital age. They're definitely not competitive online, but they could be.

>Netflix was neat in the beginning.

No, their model was affiliate marketing in the form of popups on sites like Pirate Bay. Fucking Pirate Bay, for fucks sake. Can't deny, it was effective in one way or the other, before they turned to streaming.

>Hardly any TV shows or movies in their catalog are from before 1999, there wasn't enough anti white male bashing and nig nogs portrayed as geniuses back then

Or, you know, licensing costs versus utilization.

>>1808923
As more people subscribe to the service, the license catalog and originals will shift and expand.

If you have Chrome (Firefox/IE doesn't work lel), you can watch HBO in your browser. TVEverywhere is expanding because cord cutters -- if you have Comcast there's X1, which is even better.

>Their catalog sucks.
They have some trash Netflix Originals, but they're doing far better than Amazon Prime. The only shows that Prime has is Man in the High Castle and The Grand Tour
