The only streaming services that really matter are the ones that are global. Prime, Netflix, Disney.
Netflix has a huge headstart. I believe almost 60 % of their subscribers are outside usa. They make local originals in every region they are. Just look at the amount of Spanish language originals that came out this year. Spanish, Dutch, Turkish, Korean, Italian, ... originals. It’s their ‘secret’ weapon.
- killerdhmo 7y agoI don’t disagree I just think it’s naive. The biggest grossing programs are still American, so the question is if the future is in blockbusters like Marvel / Game of Thrones or if the better play is smaller niche plays.
- dillonmckay 7y agoI don’t know, you said American, and even with the monthly premium, there are less than 400 million potential customers, right?
- PopeDotNinja 7y agoAmerican shows have global audiences, as the rights are sold worldwide. For example, I stayed in Austria last night and watched Game of Thrones in German on something other than HBO.
