Re: Patience
@Joe Stanganelli, great examples! Clearly, a fast-paced changing world!
Re: Patience
Indeed, @DHagar... Thus the success with Millennials and hipsters of Spotify over such "push-music" services as Pandora.

Re: Overstatisticianization
@JoeS, I believe you are right. They have a learning curve ahead of them. The content world is quite different than the supply chains. Their success will be how well they are able to adapt and learn what those differences are.

Re: Patience
@dir5288, very true. And the focus on selling what we have created, rather than selling what the customer wants to buy, is a total different proposition. The old days of push selling I believe are gone. If you don't offer what the customer wants someone else will be happy to.
Re: Overstatisticianization
@DHagar: Amazon still has some catching up to do though, I think. As Family Guy recently observed about Amazon Prime, "[It's,] like, the eighth best way to watch TV."
Re: Patience
If change was always good Netflix's stock wouldn't have dipped almost 70% a couple of years back.
In any case, there is enough content and enough demand to go around for all of the major players, I think.
Re: Overstatisticianization
@John: Indeed, demand for one single niche channel can only be sold so many times, but when many are bundled as a team, the rising tide can lift all their ships.
Although there are definitely a few channels I wonder about...

Re: Patience
I agree with you.
I feel like companies today are afraid of change. They find what works for them and they stick with that. That's okay, only the world and technology are always changing. Companies have to keep up and keep things fresh for their customers.

Re: Patience
@freehe, well stated. The competition winner is the one who can best deliver what the customer wants. Netflix is responding to the customer. HBO thinks they own the customer. That's ripe for offering a better alternative.
Here's for Netflix!
