Due to a constant market growth and a positive economic profit more and more corporations are entering the market of SVoD.

However Netflix still leads the market with a market share of 15.6%. According to Digital TV Research in 2025 Netflix will still have the lead but the competition is high and Netflix has to keep its revenues constant since the relative market share with Amazon Prime Video is only 1.12

THE PRICE INCREASE

​

Netflix is currently the leader in this market segment. Due to increases in costs and investments Netflix increased its subscription price by 18%. This decision is a double-edged sword that on one hand caused a subscriber growth slowdown. On the other hand this manuvre led to an increase in revenue and in addiction Netflix subscription’s price corresponds to 1/3 of the demand for VoD

POLITICAL AND LEGAL

CENSORSHIP

​

The theme of censorship became more and more relevant as the firm increased its size expanding its services worldwide. Different policies, regulations and laws forced Netflix to censor some of its major and minor contents in Vietnam, Germany, Saudi Arabia, Singapore and others leading to a partial decrease of the growth rate in those states.

In some countries like China, North Corea and Crimea Netflix is banned by the US government

CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC

​

The pandemic caused by COVID19 completely changed consumers habits and lifestyle. The quarantine is expected to increase Netflix’s revenue in both short-run and long-run. Even if SVoD is not the sector that’ll experience the greatest growth, Netflix increased its subscriptions in the short-run and , since people will try the service offered by the firm, also in the long-run

Technological and environmental

RENEWABLE ENERGY

​

Netflix’s technological development keeps it at the top of the market. However Netflix was recently in the spotlights due to the huge amount of carbon emission caused by data traffic. The company has already switched its entire direct energy supply to renewable energy and is now trying to convert also the energy from its partners

Target market:

The target market includes people of both genders between the ages of 17-60. The product is aimed at the lower-middle class and up, more precisely at households with an income level of more than $30,000. Netflix wants to meet the needs of people who are too busy to go out to buy their favorite titles and it offers a variety of foreign and international films that appeal to many ethnic groups.

The company also provides a service of DVD delivery for those film lovers who are frequent movie renters.

Netflix allows people to make the most out of their money, watching unlimited content at a fixed subscription fee

2019:

The decision to set higher prices at the beginning of 2019 led to a decrease in the growth of the number of subscribers both in the domestic and international market. However this increase in prices boosted the average revenue per subscriber by 16%, which will finance future investment to reinforce the value proposition of the company.

Service Value chain

A good technology for a good service

Learn to learn (R&D)

Cable tv, a traditional way of watching tv​:

​

-

Over time cable tv, became more expensive and less exiting, since they had too much channels and nothing really interesting to watch.

ISSUES

  1.  Lack of possiblity for binge-watching
  2.  Low care of consumer experience 

SOLUTION

Streaming video (Binge culture) :

  • Instead of airing episodes weekly you can consume an entire season in one go at a high quality, satisfying your content creator and your users

80% of what peopel see comes from algorithm reccomendation.

Different languages in different country for different culture.

Understanding the taste of consumers in order to predict what they could like and what not (Deep learning )

Encoding:

Responsible for generating the video stream

Neflix users watch it in a wide variety of devices (improvment of compression video research )

Delivering videos around the world (not every member (different countries different environment) of the neflix community have high bandwidth)

Experimentation:

All their ideas are tested in order to make sure that data, not opinion (on what users should like),is used to make decisions.

Every netlfix user is on everage in 20 experiments, and each one has three different variants,with a tot amount of 3,5B experience (each consumer has a unique netflix experience)
