AstroCreep Posted June 8, 2018 Posted June 8, 2018 Where did Netflix get all that capital to buy up all those movies and shows they are presently airing? We aren't talking about a little cash, they spent millions and millions. The quality of a lot of the movies and shows are high. Good actors, stories, special effects... I've been fairly surprised. Where did all that cash come from..? Quote
GunStarHero Posted June 8, 2018 Posted June 8, 2018 Netflix is available in something like 200 countries and has over 100 million subscribers active at any one time. You figure all of those subscribers pay anywhere from $8-14 a month and it adds up fast. I did hear that they regularly lose money on movies but I guess it hasn't been enough to throw them off. Not to mention the fact that a lot of cable providers have seen the writing on the wall and are offering Netflix subs with their cable packages to entice customers. Same goes for some phone companies. Quote
Distortedreasoning Posted June 9, 2018 Posted June 9, 2018 netflix has been around forever. i guess you don't remember the days they started out as a rental company where they sent you movies by mail. they moved their company in the right direction by going all digital online. and like gunstar said, those subscriptions add up.

GunStarHero Posted June 9, 2018 Posted June 9, 2018 Evidently they still offer DVD subscription services, too. 1 Quote
