Netflix CEO Confirms Netflix Won't Be Part of Apple's Upcoming Video Service

You know, it feels like maybe we need to start watching a little less and living a little more.

Excuse me if I make up my own mind about how much television I watch.

......just no words........well yeah ok.......Apple fix itunes! Apple fix OS12 so I can stream my phone to my Apple TV! Did I mention fix Itunes? YOU are not a content company.....never will be.....don't try to be.....the only agenda that you need to do (get back to) is making Beautiful hardware and Software for it that works!!! Leave the rest to the snowflakes!

AirPlay?

Yeah but I mean like, if Apple has an awesome show like Stranger Things how does someone without an Apple thing watch it?

Someone else said they're going to embed iTunes into Smart TVs, which makes sense.

Who knows - Apple might even release a TV app for android next week, or at least make their content accessible through the Apple Music app for android?

What % of Disney content do you think should be public domain? It's still a very small %. They flat out own TONS of content and you're stuck on Mickey.

Anything over 28 years old and about 20 to 30% of the stuff over 14 years. Not everything deserves to be extended. Of course, I also don't think corporations should be able to hold patents, trademarks or copyrights. It should be held by employees who create it. If an employee leaves on their own or by termination they should be granted the right to take anything in their name. It gives employees motivation to work and corporations a financial incentives to do the right things.

Spotify cost 30% more on iOS because they rather the customer pays the fees owed to Apple then they do do themselves.

Then ask yourself, given that Apple doesn’t pay the 30% fee for Apple Music on the App Store, why Apple has to charge the same to end user

Why can’t they?

Hmmmmmmmm, curious as to how Netflix and Apple will compete. Will the ecosystem pose as an advantage?

Seems like a deterrent to me. I'd rather have access to the Netflix app, or HBO app, on every single device out there. Example, I have Playstation 4s in my house. Is there going to be an Apple app for that? I doubt it. But there are Netflix and HBO apps for it, and for the PS3 too.

Netflix will be spotified.

It’s not at all the same. Spotify does not create content. Netflix have seen this coming for years and have been moving more and more towards original content. They have a global platform.

I watch amazon prime 3 or 4 times a year. Netflix is where I start my tv browsing every day.
