With that said, Netflix quit allowing multiple people to use one account and it looks like profits are way up. From Google: The streaming giant said it added 9.3 million customers in the first quarter, bringing its total number of subscribers to almost 270 million. The company also said its profits in the first quarter jumped to more than $2.3bn (£1.85bn). But the firm will stop reporting key subscriber numbers from next year. Apr 19, 2024.

Yeah, in my opinion network and cable programming in the US has really dropped off over the last 5-10 years. But Netflix has thrived with their own originals during that same period. Coupled with the fact that most other countries don't have a fraction of the cable and network content that the US does and the international success is a no brainer.

rjs4470 Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 2 hours ago, bugatti said: The NFL owns any day of the year it wants. Yep. It comes down to the fact that there are meaningful games in the NFL every single week. Outside of a few teams at the end of the regular season that have already clinched their spot, there are several big games to watch. Stars players don't sit (unless they are hurt), and so many games have playoff impact. No other sport has the urgency during the regular season that the NFL has, so each game is truly an event. The other sports leagues with a high number of games, load management for star players and the shear length of the season just doesn't allow the regular season to have the same impact and watchability that the NFL has.

Unless Santa comes through with a PS5 and EA College Football, I'll be parked in front of the TV watching football all afternoon.
