Case Study

Case Analysis 2 – Netflix and the Battle of the Streaming Services (40 pts)

Please answer the following questions:

1) Based on your use of streaming services, do you feel the streaming platforms differ in terms of stand-alone value (e.g., fidelity, ease of use, recommender systems, etc.)?

2) Again based on your use, how do you feel the streaming services differ based on the types and quality of the content (the complementary good) they provide?

3) What factors do you think influence a consumer’s choice of whether to subscribe to a streaming service? How important are the standalone features? How important is the content?

4) What are the pros and cons of having content be exclusive to a particular service?

5) Do you think the market will eventually choose a few services as “winners” and the other services will exit (or combine with the winners), or will the market continue to support many different services?

Importantly, apply as many of the COs (Course Objectives) as you can to the case. These are given for reference below.
