Netflix revisited
In January 2011, ( in my predictions for 2001 ) while Netflix was seemingly at the top of it’s game, I predicted that Netflix would become increasingly irrelevant. Some people scoffed at that notion ( some people actually agreed with me) ,,,I also predicted that Groupon would not succeed as well
I figured it would be a good time to revisit Netflix.
It’s quite simple : Netflix simply does not have content to compete with the other players. It used to be that Netflix had an edge because of it’s unique streaming and content management technology. This is no longer the case. Netflix no longer had any significant technology edge and they still dont have content…. What is likely to happen IMO is that Netflix will either merge or be brought out ( or buy) a major content provider.
