- blowski 14y agoDo Netflix or Apple license the content, or just offer some kind of revenue share with the publisher? In the music industry it's the latter. That model has been a disaster (for music companies) as they take all the risk for the failures, while Apple gets a relatively large proportion of revenue from the winners.
- lucian1900 14y agoAfaik they license.
- yk 14y agoNetflix is at least not available in Germany. ( And AFAIK iTunes can have regional limits.) So there is no truly global distribution channel. ( Except torrents.)
- lucian1900 14y agoNeither Netflix nor iTunes are as global as torrents, which is sad. But they are much, much better than US-only.
