RE: Netflix crashes 30%20 Apr 2022 20:29
While not a lot, Netflix content has already been shown in cinemas and probably will continue to when it is right for both parties.
Little surprised (not completely) we are AGAIN covering streaming/cinema and relationships between then.
Well documented that many of the biggest cinema going sections of society are the self same people that watch most streaming content. For many these are two different services that provide them with product to consume. They ha e similarities, but also key differences.
Cinema does not need nor likely want "the death of streaming" nor does streaming want/need "the end" of the big screen.
Infact both being healthy is beneficial to the other.
Considering the over inflated rise of last year/two in streaming subs (due to people having zero other option and when spending 24 hours a day working, living, sleeping in the same place then off course people turned to streaming or more streaming as they also did with peleton bikes for example.
We all have choice again so habits alter.
Whether it is now or future there will come a point of saturation and changes in that market.
I don't see the end not want the end of streaming.
It was Sky TV before, the likes of Disney has had Disney channel on that sort of platform for God knows how long, it is updating that essentially. Before that is was blue ray (DVD) before that videos and before that we had "the beeb" or council telly. Before that it was radio.....
The finances of cinema visit has been covered to death also.
Seems some don't get the demographic that covers majority of cinema attendance or that it has been shown before that cinema does relatively well in recessionary times.
We can cover it another 100 times I am sure and these/similar people will still not wish to get that.
We do need to see more content come forth from studios again though.
(almost) Every business is reliant on supply.
