Does Netflix even know how to fail? It made a valiant effort in April 2022 when it reported a loss of 200,000 subscribers and projected more pain ahead. But since then, the company has rebounded and then some, this week reporting the addition of 18.9 million subscribers in Q4 as it exceeded $10 billion in …
It was only days after Disney, Fox, and Warner Bros. Discovery cancelled their planned Venu sports streaming service that DirecTV this week announced it would launch its own sports-centric service called MySports. The irony isn’t lost on observers, considering that DirecTV had threatened to continue the fight against Venu after the parties settled with Fubo …

The movement toward widespread “shoppable ads” continues with this week’s expansion of Roku’s partnership with Instacart as Roku chases what it describes as “high-intent customers.” As QR code ads have gradually gained acceptance, the industry has been waiting for more sophisticated interactivity that could ease the customer conversion process and ultimately enable platforms to get …
No one on the distribution or content side of the industry wants piracy. It’s a bad look, and it hurts the entire value chain that depends on consumers paying for what they watch (or at least watching ads). That’s why this week’s announcement by the Motion Picture Association’s enforcement group, the Alliance for Creativity and …
