1000 other streaming services appeared to steal its thunder

Niggers, women, and jews.

diversity, equity and inclusion

White people make shit good. You take them out of it, you end up with pandering gay niggershit written by women

>NOOO WHY AREN'T THE MAJORITY GIVING US MONEY TO INSULT THEM!??!?!

>increases their price yearly but add zero content to justify said increase and then wonder why you are losing numbers

I think that "Cuties" show was the start , programming that may win awards from the uber progressive , but your average joe doesn't find appealing

This plus the binge model doesn’t work well in the long term as you can watch everything you want on Netflix in a month and then cancel your subscription right afterwards without care.

4 of the 5 major studios started their own streaming service. comcast already started pulling content from hulu to peacock, in 2024 they can sell their 1/3 stake to disney who will probably merge the service with disney+. warner is hbo max and paramount is paramount+. sony are selling content to the rest but netflix can't sustain growth on a fraction of sony's movies, the anime crunchyroll and funimation passed over, and shitty original content. their massive debt was only acceptable to investors if they kept gaining subscribers.

>completely dominate entire industry in the early days of streaming
>new streaming platforms suddenly pop up, more competition
>slowly move away from licensing third party content in favor of creating original content to make even more money
>original content all sucks
>eventually start to lose streaming rights to huge IPs like Friends, The Office, Star Wars, Marvel, etc.
>keep jacking up monthly subscription costs while the availability of quality content simultaneously dwindles
basically greed and incompetence. They simply can't compete in this new streaming market

They spent hundreds of millions to acquire a gazillion Korean shows but everyone can only name two of them at best. And they lowered their prices to get a bunch of people to subscribe then started raising the price back up once they had decent looking numbers for the reports. They also tried to fill their catalog too fast and ended up making mostly shit. I think the commitment was 100+ original movies made and released in 2yrs.

They basically use the "block booking" concept which was used by the old Hollywood studio system until it was outlawed: The studio would sell the theaters a package with a bunch of films, out of which one was the big blockbuster, and the rest just average movies. If you wanted the blockbuster, you had to get the whole package.

Netflix works the same way: There's a few good films/shows, and the rest is just cheap filler to make it seem like there's a huge library.
Question is, how much are people willing to pay for comparatively little quality content.

Sounds ripe for a Netflix adaptation

>cheapest plan is $9.99 for 480p quality only
the audacity to even sell standard quality only and charge $5.99 more just to get 1080p makes even less sense when they are increasing prices frequently as they are

>>Make egregiously progressive content
>>Place shaneequa on everything possible. Viking series? Shaneequa Jarl. 18th century england? Shaneequa noble.
The Netflix logo on a program became the symbol of utter shit movies. They really need to turn the ship around before being eaten by Disney.

>get HBO free with my internet provider
>move out, cancel internet plan
>look at how much HBO Max subscription costs
>$10 with ads or $15 for ad free version
what ever happened? I thought the whole idea of paying was to avoid ads. And when did streaming services suddenly jump from $5 to $15 a month?

Everything

Their original programming didn't used to be shit. Remember the first seasons of:

>House of Cards
>Orange is the New Black
>Marco Polo
>Daredevil
>Narcos
>Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt
>Godless
>BoJack Horseman

Now, before you start talking shit about how pozzed half of those became, try to remember how good they were Season 1 before Netflix became Netflix and the shows turned into what they turned into. There was a brief moment there that you'd have rather been watching Netflix than HBO.

They lost a lot of popular shows and movies belonging to other streaming services.
They focused too much on politics, and it is mostly done with no subtlety.
They hire crappy writers all the time.
Their model is quantity over quality hoping that something sticks.

the early stuff was when they had very few originals, now it's quantity over quality and pray something gets popular

> didn't used to be shit
>Orange is the New Black

nani?
