I have noticed a fundamental difference in the way these businesses try to function here. Amazon has been trying to completely adapt to how things "get done" in India. For the sake of the loose analogy I'll equate it to the "Ola way". You got to get your cabs moving on the road? Don't fight with the system, don't challenge the Govt or court, get around it. Politicians banned your cab? Well, wait till the evening when things cool down and traffic cops stop pulling your cabs over while you are busy lobbying and then everything is back on track while Uber kept releasing statements and losing business. Amazon has shown this on pricing front and the way they introduce offers and deals that is very specific to how it will work in India. On the other hand Netflix tries to follow the same system that it follows everywhere - kind of how Uber has been trying so far - and it seems Netflix is already backing down when it comes to again pricing. Couple of lawsuits and and bans and I have little doubt Netflix will fall in line and start with the self-censoring. I do want Netflix to succeed too and not at all condone censorship. Just sharing my crude observations as a local.
