Netflix used to be head-and-shoulders above other streaming services, now it seems that streaming (which was unbelievably revolutionary 10 years ago) is trivial now. Look how Peacock and Disney+ just popped up overnight, streaming video is just commoditized now. I think what makes a company a "tech company" is doing actual R&D. Netflix pioneered a lot of technology around streaming. Google invented the modern search engine. Microsoft builds operating systems. Apple designs hardware and operating systems. NBC with Peacock? No, they just bought something off-the-shelf. Is Netflix still doing real cutting-edge R&D? Maybe? Maybe not.
