Is it just me that thinks the constant growth model is freaking insane?
In the platform space, it inevitably begets platforms full of ads, because it’s one way to maintain that constant growth.
Eventually all platforms that are big enough end up in the same place one way or another.
- ListeningPie 3y agoAll this growth is because A CEO is accountable to the shareholders and not the customers. Customers may be happy but if shareholders value the company at $215 billion dollars you had better find a way to get there. Until Netflix starts losing money due to ads, they have to keep pushing them. User experience be damned as long as more money is rolling in. I think the strategy is to keep pushing until an inflection point is reached and then back off and adjust. Otherwise not trying ads could cost billions.
