- batoure 12y agoNetflix doesn't want this to go through, their market saturation is not nearly high enough. 76% of american's have some form of extended television service, cable/satellite. Netflix covers around 10% of US households. They see them selves as being in competition with these other providers. It is in their best interest to keep the cost of providing Netflix as low as possible until their % of households is significantly higher. So when you talk about protectionism you probably need to back out a level. Because remember the big business of the companies pushing the "internet fast lane" is also television. They have layers of conflicting interests in their wish to constrain Netflix.
