I'm probably wrong here, but it seems to me that storage is practically cheap enough (not quite) that Netflix could simply send out a drive with their whole library and then a membership gives you access codes.
Send out a new drive per year.
Do they really only have 4,000 movies in the US?
- robertlagrant 5y agoI doubt my subscription would cover the cost of that drive every year, even if I wanted to wait 12 months for new content!
- OneEyedRobot 5y agoImagine how small the drive would be if it just had 'things I might ever watch'. The size for 100% isn't even that big given a few iterations of storage tech. I'm just blown away by how little Netflix really gives you. Given the push to internally-financed programming they've basically become a production company with streaming bolted onto the back end. Their market cap is kind of a joke.
- robertlagrant 5y ago> The size for 100% isn't even that big given a few iterations of storage tech. Okay? :-)
