> Netflix eats online news
If Netflix is eating online news both in terms of attention and money then why wouldn't they partner with Netflix? I know a few seniors that are reluctant to switch because it doesn't have news or weather.
- Doxin 7y agoHonestly having a daily news show on netflix seems like such a no-brainer that I can't fathom why it isn't on there yet. You'll get a whole load of people opening netflix at least once a day for basically.
- draw_down 7y agoThose by definition have to be produced every day, and they are regional to boot. And they go stale pretty much instantly. Netflix wants to produce content that can be successful in more than one region of the world, that doesn’t expire quickly, that can be added to the catalog and watched some time into the future. A show like that would be everything they don’t want.
- SmellyGeekBoy 7y agoEach story could have its own video (like news stories on a text-based news site having their own page) and viewers could just watch the ones that interest them. Or they could stream them back-to-back like a season of TV. The weather forecast could be a separate video too. On-demand news.
