In 20 years from now we will all be able to click and watch TV.
From Reed Hastings
Well, we're about 24 million subscribers today, and that's up from about 15 million a year ago, so it's a very high rate of growth, and that's what's exciting about the business - more and more people are getting smart TVs, they're watching Netflix on their iPads.
Stone Age. Bronze Age. Iron Age. We define entire epics of humanity by the technology they use.
At Netflix, we think you have to build a sense of responsibility where people care about the enterprise. Hard work, like long hours at the office, doesn't matter as much to us. We care about great work.
In hindsight, I slid into arrogance based upon past success.
I've worked very hard, but my life's always been fun.
We have a very wide range of content, but the brand-newest movies, what's happening with those is a $30 pay-per-view option - not from Netflix but from DirecTV and others - of movies that are in the theater.
Most entrepreneurial ideas will sound crazy, stupid and uneconomic, and then they'll turn out to be right.
Most companies that are great at something - like AOL dialup or Borders bookstores - do not become great at new things people want (streaming for us) because they are afraid to hurt their initial business.
There is a revolution happening, and within two years I think that Wi-Fi and Netflix will be built into all the televisions.
