Netflix has a pretty solid architecture for streaming video. It's definitely better than Apple's. Their content deals are also for subscription streaming where Apple's are for one time streams and downloads. I'm not sure if that actually matters or not.
Apple could buy them just to be anticompetitive and block all the competition from having it (which would be huge imagine if the Apple TV was the only way you could stream Netflix to a TV). I don't see the government allowing that though.

- RandallBrown 15y agoI don't know if they can or not. They can certainly try.
