About Netflix
Netflix is the largest subscription streaming service in the world and commissions more original programming than any traditional studio. Its 2023 crackdown on password sharing was widely predicted to cost subscribers and instead added them in large numbers. It began commissioning its own programmes in 2013 when studios started withholding licences, and now spends more on content each year than most film studios earn in revenue.
