Dit kost wereldominantie voor Netflix

Zo Netflix heeft er ih laatste kwartaal van 2019 weer 8.8 miljoen abonnees bij..
Wat ik zo leuk vind aan deze werelddominantie is dat ik ineens japanse, spaanse, israelische en zweedse series kijk en ook veel over die culturen leer.
De NLse Ares is vooralsnog een echte flop helaas. Ziet er mooi uit maar geen verhaal wat aanspreekt.

Meanwhile, competitors Apple AAPL, +0.48% and Disney DIS, -1.26% are way behind. Netflix claims 87% of over-the-top (OTT) subscribers in the U.S. and 50%-70% of subscribers in developed regions such as Europe. In addition, Netflix penetration is at 11.8% of subscribers in Asia-Pacific and is set to grow to 14.3% in 2020, with double digits in Asia being no small feat for an American media company.

Netflix’s numbers put a price tag on global domination: Free cash flow (FCF) was an astonishing negative $3.3 billion for 2019. The company forecasts negative free cash flow of $2.5 billion for this year. It’s expensive to produce high-quality local originals for many geographic regions. Still, the company said in its release that the “plan is to continually improve FCF each year and to move slowly toward FCF positive.”
