It is funny that Netflix doesn't seem to be serving up relevant content to me. Discovery is just not that good yet. Everytime I visit the site, I have to go digging. Maybe (and I'm hoping) its just this selection problem. I hope they add more (good) titles to streaming, and fix this discovery issue.
I wonder how much licensing fees factor into them hiding good content vs. playing it up to show that they are still relevant.
- goostavos 15y ago"Still relevant"? What is threatening Netflix right now? Hulu maybe, I guess. If you really like TV shows, and paying to see ads. I'm also an Amazon Prime member, but their streaming catalog is abysmal -- I mean, it borders on embarrassing. I check it every now and again when Amazon uses the home page to tell me all of the 'great' new content they've added, but going back to the Netflix comparison, by that benchmark, it doesn't even come close. I've never run into an issue with them hiding content. I'm not sure to what you're referring. They didn't plaster Iron Man 2 all over the landing page when it became available? You can more or less watch the views flood in on instantwatcher.com anytime a 'modern' movie is released on streaming. It shoots to the top right away, which makes me think that, for most people, finding the 'good' content is not an issue.

- joelmaat 15y agoWhat you've said has nothing to do with my comment.
- danilocampos 15y ago> What is threatening Netflix right now? Hostile rights holders who are forcing their catalog to shrink. Continually whittling away the streaming catalog's value is Netflix's biggest problem, not competing services.
