In recent years, there has been a huge buzz around online streaming services such as Netflix and Sofy.tv, and how they are reshaping the movie business.

Netflix was at the forefront of this movement when it developed a video streaming service that allowed anyone with a computer to stream TV shows and movies from their own home.

Its rise has been meteoric. Today, it has 203.67 million paid subscribers worldwide and is now a major production studio that produces both TV shows and movies.

Its model involves releasing TV shows and movies that its users can watch anytime and anywhere via its online streaming platform. In the case of TV shows, Netflix releases the entire series all in one go, meaning its users can watch them at their leisure.

Given that the basic monthly subscription starts at around $9, members get exceptional value for money when compared to the price of movie theatre tickets, which on average, cost around $9.21 in the U.S.

Firstly, due to resistance from the big Hollywood movie studios, Netflix has found it hard to get its films released in large numbers of movie theatres when it wanted to.
