From its start as a DVD-by-mail rental service, Netflix has systematically changed the rules of the media business.
Its introduction of streaming in 2007 led to the decline of the video rental store and dramatically increased the use of broadband internet. Starting in 2013, its introduction of its own programming, from House of Cards to The Crown to Stranger Things challenged the traditional ways viewers watched TV. Now its original movies, like The Irishman and the three-time Academy Award-winner Roma, are upending the operations of the Hollywood studios. With an ever increasing budget of over $15 billion per year, service to 190 countries, and 150 million subscribers, this presentation will examine how Netflix is primed to become the dominant source of leisure time entertainment throughout the world. Join Brian Rose, a Professor in the Department of Communication and Media Studies at Fordham University's College at Lincoln Center, as he explores the impact and disruption that Netflix has brought to the world of Television and Film.
