I'm actually surprised that anyone thought that Netflix would ever end up as anything but a "TV Network", albeit with a nice interface. The business model is what it is. All the hype, the stratospheric share price, the prognostications of "disruption" (which they certainly did) don't change the fact that it's all about the content. And in that sense, Netflix doesn't really have any advantages. Creators will go where the pay is best, which leaves less for the distributor; winner's curse and all that.
