What made netflix successful initially was their access to IP.  That&amp;#x27;s going away fast as every IP producer is pushing for their own paid streaming service (which sucks, btw).&lt;p&gt;With big heavyweights like Disney that own a huge percentage of content having their own services, netflix is really going to struggle being anything more than niche media providers (anime) and their own inhouse media.&lt;p&gt;If they are lucky, they&amp;#x27;ll be an HBO style platform.  However, the quality of their in-house content has left a lot to be desired.  Some is good, but a lot is garbage.&lt;p&gt;That netflix has technical chops isn&amp;#x27;t going to be a saving grace.  Rather, it will mean engineers from netflix will likely be able to secure jobs at other streaming providers.</text><parent_chain><item><author>monkeybutton</author><text>Netflix is facing the rise of competing streaming platforms. They&amp;#x27;re forced into creating their own content because other producers would rather release content on their own platforms and keep all the streaming revenue, rather than license it to Netflix.

They&amp;#x27;ve also gobbled up a lot of key Hollywood players in the last few years, so I expect some huge cultural changes ahead as these creatives start to take more leadership roles in the company.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Poll: Which FAANG is the most likely to decline in the years ahead?</title></story>

The producers are getting greedy. I don’t think people will put up with having multiple subscriptions and eventually it’ll all come back down to a few key players.&lt;p&gt;My money is on Netflix, Prime (because we want the free shipping) and Disney.</text><parent_chain><item><author>monkeybutton</author><text>Netflix is facing the rise of competing streaming platforms.
