Case Study:

Netflix is the original major streaming option for home television audiences. When it started nearly
20 years ago, Netflix was a subscription‐based DVD service that would mail DVDs straight to your
home. It still does that too (more on that later), but in 2007, Netflix debuted its streaming service,
allowing viewers to watch thousands of on‐demand TV shows and movies ad‐free. Ten years later,
Netflix has become one of the biggest names in entertainment, producing critically acclaimed TV
shows (Daredevil, House of Cards, Stranger Things, and Luke Cage, to quickly name four) and
movies and hosting original comedy specials.
Netflix now offers up a wide range of content across every genre you can imagine. From fullseasons
of today’s hottest TV shows to classic movies, Netflix has more entertainment than you could ever
possibly watch.
As you watch more content, Netflix will learn about your viewing habits, offering up custom genres
with colorful names like “80s action comedies” or “gory unconventional horror films for feminists.”
Netflix’s algorithm is one of the smartest in the industry, so once you’ve moved past the stage
