260M households does not equal 260M satisfied with Netflix alone. Almost everyone I know with Netflix also has at least one, if not both, of Disney+ or Prime Video
Thanks for confirming that I didn't imply something that the GP read into it.
They posted numbers like they were well informed, but conveniently left out of those numbers that you pointed out had more than 1 subscription that you've pointed out. I just didn't think this was something that needed to be pointed out in an honest conversation, and would only be needed by shills for Netflix
You said that the reason people don't subscribe to Netflix alone is because the library has become so small and crap. Your thesis is incorrect.
Nobody ever only got their TV and movie entertainment from a single source.
If you pay attention to consumer sentiment with respect to video streaming services, you will know that the #1 thing streaming subscribers value is original and exclusive content first. https://www.fool.com/research/state-of-streaming/
No studio has a monopoly on exclusive and original content.
How much Disney content is now on Netflix? Gotten smaller.
How much Paramount content is now on Netflix? Gotten smaller.
How much WB/HBO content is now on Netflix? Gotten smaller.
please, show me where my thesis is incorrect.
Netflix was the only streaming site which meant ever studio used them for streaming, plus they also had their shiny round disc service. Now, Netflix is claiming they want to get to 100% only their content which is just PR spin because nobody else will license them content. If you think they have more content now than they have in the past, you are sorely mistaken. Arguing the point just shows your lack of honesty.
I no nothing about the "poll" you link to other than they did not ask me. I don't care about exclusive content produced by the streaming platform. I care about the depth of the content available. The streaming platform fragmentation has pushed me away from caring about ANY of the platforms. Cutting the cord from cable providers was meant to be a cheaper solution than paying for the various cable packages. Now, there are so many streamers that must be paid for separately, they add up to the same as the old cable providers people were wanting to "rebel" against.
Nothing has changed for the consumer's wallet. It's just cutting out the cable middleman, and now going straight to the studios.
Look, I'll give you credits for trying since you don't know who I am, but suggesting I'm not paying attention to streaming clearly shows you know nothing Jon Snow about me or what I do.
Netflix's US catalogue is not the same as many international markets where they are still the only game in town and have the streaming rights to much more stuff.
I am a paying customer. Mostly due to my kids enjoying a lot of their stuff.
It used to have a decent amount of content for me - but as time went, I just found less and less interesting content and now I no longer bother to even browse Netflix.
260 million paying households around the world disagree. In last quarter alone, 13 million new households started subscribing.
