‘Will Amazon’s deep pockets strangle Netflix?’ – ‘The Forrester Blog’

The latest article on ‘The Forrester Blog’ is titled “Will Amazon’s deep pockets strangle Netflix?”.

Nigel Fenwick says, “Amazon’s recent distribution agreement with Epix is a big threat to the dominance of Netflix in the movie streaming market.

Last year Netflix attempted to shift its business strategy to focus mainly on streaming video. Although I wasn’t present in the boardroom discussions, it’s a reasonable bet that Reed Hastings and his team had decided the future was online streaming and that physical discs were a dinosaur. Since the war for content would be fought over streaming, Netflix would focus on adding value to its streaming customers and spin-off the disc customers”.
