Netflix can be considered excellent value for money because of its choice of movies available and the convenience surrounding the way that they are watched. This is, of course, as and when required. Netflix can have its problems but nothing that is not solvable. You can unblock Netflix with a VPN, for example.
Those who use Netflix are seeing benefits that they are then sharing with others. This includes sharing their viewing experiences in person while watching a movie and by talking about the movies once watched.
Sharing the Cost
Netflix costs the person subscribing but not everyone who watches it. One of the benefits of Netflix is that a subscriber can share the Netflix benefits with other movie lovers. This is entirely appropriate when they are close friends and in the same family. As long as we do not start charging them for the experience as that would be profiteering and unethical. We can be expected, though, to share our Netflix movie watching with our romantic date or the rest of our family. This is to be expected for a value for money experience and encouragement for us to get Netflix in the first place.
The Wide Choice of Movies and TV Shows on Netflix
Netflix does not just have movies and TV shows available that are already out there but also has shows produced especially for its viewing platform. These are exclusive and available only to Netflix subscribers, who can specifically enjoy the shows and movies produced for them. This does increase the choice of what is available beyond what other viewers must choose from with rival streaming services.
Examples of the movies and viewing available on Netflix include:
Action – The Dark Knight or Batman Begins.
Adventure – Braveheart; Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
Fantasy: Stardust.
Music – Springsteen on Broadway; Taylor Swift reputation Stadium Tour.
Mystery – Django Unchained; The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.
Sci-Fi – Blade Runner: The Final Cut.
War – Dances with Wolves.
Other categories include animated, comedy, documentary, romance, war, and more. Some of the above will cross over between genres, so the above just shows them listed under the one genre.
A Living Standard
Without Netflix to offer visitors, you are being left behind in that so many other people have it. The streaming technology has been out a while now and is tried, assessed, and liked. It is adding significantly to its list of subscribers every day, and as it does, is adding to its list of available movies. Many will wait for the movie to appear on Netflix to enjoy at their leisure rather than as a cinema time. Big screens at home mean that a cinematic experience is becoming easier to achieve.
Friends when they visit each other at home will ask if that person has Netflix. If they say yes, then they become a popular friend. Everyone can enjoy a takeaway while watching one of Netflix’s offerings. There is bound to be a movie to suit everyone with so many genres provided. You will find the same movies listed under several different genres because they fit into them too. It makes sense to list a movie in every place relevant for it to be discovered more easily. It makes for an easier service for users. Then another method helps, such as being able to search by the year a movie was released. We can then plan a themed night where we just watch 80s movies.
Netflix we can conclude represents excellent value for money in that it does not have to be a cost for just one person when others can share the experience. At the same time, it will make us immensely popular when we have our own Netflix when friends come around to our house and almost expect it, with the technology out there. That is something to think about as well. We can have Netflix as a family and then any friends that come around can sit to watch too.
