"...you would pick up your remote control, you would tune to Channel 450, and there you'd find Netflix. You'd select it and that'll launch the Netflix app. Literally, watching Netflix is as easy as changing the channel."
facepalm
That's some bad old-fashioned UI right there.
- sanderjd 13y agoIt may seem a bit crazy to us, but I think it is a brilliant stepping-stone into a (really big) market of people who 1) watch a lot of TV and 2) have shown that they don't really grok Netflix's new-fangled user experience. My parents still switch back and forth between three shows to avoid commercials. They often do this for hours a night. They have a fully configured Roku and Chromecast boxes, and they use their smart phones more than I do, but they still reach for the cable remote instead of the Roku remote or Netflix app on their phone. It's a good lesson to learn: good user experience has a lot to do with understanding what users you're targeting and how best to do so.
