How Netflix Reverse Engineered Hollywood
http://m.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2014/01/how-netflix-reverse-engineered-hollywood/282679/
Netflix has meticulously analyzed and tagged every movie and TV show imaginable. They possess a stockpile of data about Hollywood entertainment that is absolutely unprecedented. The genres that I scraped and that we caricature above are just the surface manifestation of this deeper database.
They paid people to watch films and tag them with all kinds of metadata.
the genres that it displays to people are a key part of that strategy.
"Members connect with these [genre] rows so well that we measure an increase in member retention by placing the most tailored rows higher on the page instead of lower," the company revealed in a 2012 blog post. The better Netflix shows that it knows you, the likelier you are to stick around.
Todd Yellin at Netflix headquarters.
Yellin holed up with a couple of engineers and spent months developing a document called "Netflix Quantum Theory," which Yellin now derides as "our pretentious name." The name refers to what Yellin used to call "quanta," the little "packets of energy" that compose each movie. He now prefers the term "microtag."
Yellin said that the genres were limited by three main factors: 1) they only want to display 50 characters for various UI reasons, which eliminates most long genres; 2) there had to be a "critical mass" of content that fit the description of the genre, at least in Netflix's extended DVD catalog; and 3) they only wanted genres that made syntactic sense.

Nielsen Redefines "TV" To Include Your iPad And Xbox
Nielsen Redefines "TV" To Include Your iPad And Xbox
http://readwrite.com/2013/02/21/nielsen-internet-tv-ratings
Nielsen is going to start tracking select online video sources like Amazon, Netflix and Hulu as well as streaming devices like Xbox 360 and other gaming consoles. By the end of the year, TV viewership from iPads will be counted as well. That's good, considering the rising popularity of iPad apps like YouTube, Netflix and Hulu Plus and the ongoing push by cable operators and networks to make shows available on tablets.

Netflix Admits Huge Problems With Desperate Cash Grab
http://seekingalpha.com/article/309778-netflix-admits-huge-problems-with-desperate-cash-grab?source=yahoo
The Price "Increase" is Actually Hurting Revenue
The previous lowest tier pricing was $10/month, that got you 1 DVD at a time and access to streaming. Instead of keeping the bundle pricing, Netflix now charges $7.99 for each service with no discount for getting them both. Netflix stated in its Q3 10-Q that the number of subscribers who get both services is declining, and the vast majority of new signups opt for 1 service or the other.

Where Netflix wants to go next: India, Korea, Japan?
Hulu 금년에 일본 진출. 그리고 아시에서 다음 나라는?
Netflix는?
한국의 영상 제작사, 유통사는 빨리 그리고 광범위하게 포괄하는 콘텐츠 유통 전략을 짜야 한다.

Netflix first crossed the U.S. border when it expanded to Canada in September of 2010, and then surprised everyone with a massive expansion to 43 countries across Latin America and the Carribean in July. Most recently, the company announced that it will open shop in the U.K. and Ireland in early 2012, and a Variety report hinted at an expansion to Spain in 2012as well.
