With Netflix headed to the Bahamas, it may be interesting to see how customers in the U.S. view the company. There has been an uproar recently about Netflix pricing, but there are some other improvements relating to how the service works, particularly on mobile devices.
Scott Stein, who wrotes a tech blog for CNN, says, “as a service, Netflix is at a crossroads. Is it streaming? Is it a DVD delivery service? Is it best as both”
Stein addresses Netflix’s faults as a streaming-video entertainment service, saying the company needs to fix what’s broken improve the service and it may be worth the higher subscription price after all.
1. Fix search, browsing, and discoverability.
2. Get social.
3. Help us follow what we want to watch, and tell us when it’s here.
4. Treat Netflix like a network, not a service.
5. Let DVDs fix your content holes.
