As a writer, I want as much industry competition inflating screenwriting demand and prices accordingly. If it ever gets unsustainable, okay, I'm sure the market will react accordingly. For now though, I think it's a great time to be in Content Creation and what Netflix is doing is, no doubt, certainly one definition of "industry disruption" that gets noted frequently. Messy business, that, and risky, but here we are and Netflix is still chugging along.

- 6stringmerc 10y agoFundamental answer is yes, as I'm not doing it for a living nor living in LA, but working through other Digital / International Channels and markets for work, options, opportunities, etc. LA will probably always be the capital of US film though. It took a lot of effort to move all the way out there to avoid paying patent royalties. The business is super entrenched there - Netflix and Amazon barely put a dent in the grand scheme of productions made annually though (then again, Bollywood cranks out more than Hollywood nowadays).
