Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) Bolsa, Informe de interés en corto

Netflix

Netflix's relatively simple business model involves only one business, its streaming service. It has the biggest television entertainment subscriber base in both the United States and the collective international market, with more than 275 million subscribers globally. Netflix has exposure to nearly the entire global population outside of China. The firm has traditionally avoided live programming or sports content, instead focusing on on-demand access to episodic television, movies, and documentaries. The firm recently began introducing ad-supported subscription plans, giving the firm exposure to the advertising market in addition to the subscription fees that have historically accounted for nearly all its revenue.

Netflix Inc

NETFLIX ORD

S&amp;P 500 companies&#8217; profit is set to grow for a fifth straight quarter, with the consensus modeling earnings growth of 4.1% for the third quarter. Netflix, Inc.(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) is the first high-profile communication services company to report this earnings season, with its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41319356/netflix-set-to-capitalize-on-ad-supported-tier-price-increase-analyst-says-streamer">earnings scheduled to drop after the market close on Thursday.</a>
Deepwater Asset Management&#8217;s Gene Munster shared his expectations from the report in a post on X on Monday.
Netflix Stock Rally: Munster in a post said that Netflix shares have gained 142% since the Magnificent 7 became the tech investing standard in Jan. 2023, with the stock now perched near its all-time high. During the same period, the Magnificent 7 as a group rallied 244%, and excluding Nvidia, the group&#8217;s gain has been a more modest 140%, he said.
Munster said that the rebound seen over the past year is a function of the company&#8217;s success with the password crackdown that began in May 2023. The tech venture capitalist said this helped the company accelerate its growth from 4% in the March quarter of 2023 to 17% in the June quarter of 2024.

Consensus Call: Analysts, on average, expect Netflix to report earnings per share of $5.11 and revenue of $9.764 billion, according to <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro data. </a>This compares to the year-ago earnings of $3.73 per share and revenue of $8.54 billion. 
The 14% growth forecast by the Street will prove slightly conservative despite the comps getting tougher, beginning in the September quarter, Munster said. 
The tech analyst expects 2025 to be more challenging and therefore sees risk to the current consensus forecast of 12% growth. The assumption is based on the belief that the core business growth rate, excluding one-off benefits of password crackdown and the launch of a new offering, is in the 5-10% range.
Netflix isn&#8217;t likely to offer any guidance for the next year when it reports this week, Munster said. 
&#8220;My biggest concern to owning Netflix is opportunity cost,&#8221; he said. &#8220;While generative AI will undoubtedly reduce production costs and increase margins, the company&#8217;s exposure to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/10/41302553/create-new-ai-algorithms-to-advance-our-country-nvidia-ceo-jensen-huang-urges-doe-and-dod-to-build-a">AI paradigm shift </a>is modest when compared to $GOOG, $META, $AAPL, $TSLA, $TSM, $MSFT,&#8221; he added.

Netflix Analyst Predicts Q3 Beat But Challenging 2025, Flags This As The Biggest Concern In Holding The Stock

Jefferies, a global investment bank, has identified three major companies that are poised to benefit from the booming anime industry, which is expected to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41274383/why-is-japanese-anime-production-company-bloomz-stock-jumping-on-thursday">reach a value of $60 billion by 2030</a>.
What Happened: The investment bank has pointed out Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>), Sony Group (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SONY#NYSE">SONY</a>), and Bandai Namco (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NCBDF#OTC">NCBDF</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NCBDY#OTC">NCBDY</a>) as the top beneficiaries of the expanding anime market, <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/10/15/netflix-and-more-jefferies-names-stocks-set-to-benefit-from-a-60-billion-anime-boom.html">reported</a> CNBC.
Jefferies&#8217; analysts noted that the global entertainment industry is increasingly focusing on anime-related businesses as a core part of their growth strategies. The primary driver of this trend is the rapid expansion of the overseas market, which has grown to match the size of the Japanese market since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.
According to the analysts, &#8220;anime has become a mainstream culture in the U.S./Europe, with significant potential for expansion,&#8221; with significant potential for further expansion. They anticipate the market to double from $31.2 billion in 2023 to $60.1 billion by 2030.
The analysts predict that this growth will be driven by increased anime distribution on streaming platforms and a surge in licensing revenues from merchandise and advertising use.
Jefferies also highlighted the significant global impact of Japanese anime IP, with the top six franchises generating a combined revenue of $311 billion, dwarfing the Marvel Cinematic Universe&#8217;s $30 billion.

Netflix, which has been actively licensing and funding several anime series, is expected to continue its anime strategy into the foreseeable future. Sony Group, described as a leader in anime production and streaming, is also set to benefit from the anime market. 
Bandai Namco, known for leveraging anime IP for various products and digital games, is experiencing rising anime IP popularity through overseas sales expansion. It has produced popular games like the Shonen Jump series and Dragon Ball franchise.
Why It Matters: The anime industry has been experiencing significant growth and diversification, with companies like BloomZ Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLMZ#NASDAQ">BLMZ</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41274383/why-is-japanese-anime-production-company-bloomz-stock-jumping-on-thursday">expanding their revenue streams</a> through strategic acquisitions and project rights. 
This growth has also been reflected in the music industry, with Spotify Technology SA (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPOT#NYSE">SPOT</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/08/40470764/spotify-boasts-395-surge-in-anime-music-streams-teams-up-with-crunchyroll">reporting a 395% surge</a> in anime music streams since 2021.
Meanwhile, Sony Group has been actively <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming/24/07/39736917/sony-pocketpair-collaborate-to-expand-palworlds-global-presence">expanding its global presence</a> in the gaming industry through strategic collaborations, further solidifying its position in the anime market. 
This growth, however, has also raised concerns about copyright infringement, as seen in the case of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/23/09/34368362/japanese-youtuber-faces-jail-time-for-monetizing-gameplay-videos">Japanese YouTuber who was sentenced</a> to two years in prison for monetizing gameplay videos without permission from publishers.

Analyst Notes: Cryptocurrency analyst Ali Martinez drew attention to his projection from last month and how things were going as anticipated.
On Sept. 23, the analyst had predicted Bitcoin's fall to $60,000, followed by a rebound to $66,000, a retrace to $57,000, and finally a breakout toward $78,000.
Martinez remarked that with the first three prerequisites met, King Crypto was on track for $78,000.

Another widely-followed technical analyst, Rekt Capital stated that Bitcoin needed one daily close above $65,000 and a subsequent retest to sail into the $65000-$71350 area.
"Each of these moves have ended in lower highs, but there is a good chance that this series of lower highs could end with a daily close above $65,000," the analyst said.

Here's How Much $100 Invested In Netflix 15 Years Ago Would Be Worth Today

Streaming giant Netflix Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) has gotten price target increases from analysts thanks to ad-supported strength and pending pricing increases, with the upcoming catalyst of third-quarter <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">financial results coming Thursday</a>
 The Netflix Analysts: Goldman Sachs analyst Eric Sheridan reiterated a Neutral rating and raised the price target from $659 to $709.
Macquarie analyst Tim Nollen reiterated an Outperform rating and raised the price target from $695 to $795.

Goldman Sachs on NFLX: Ad-supporting initiatives and a new pricing strategy will impact average revenue per member for Netflix moving forward, Sheridan said in a new investor note.
"On the back of their last earnings report, the shares had an initial negative reaction but have since produced such outperformance on the back of a few key themes," Sheridan said.
The analyst said Netflix&#8217;s market leadership in streaming, increasing progress on the ad-supported tier, and focus on profits over growth are key factors that have helped its stock climb since its second-quarter financial results.
Sheridan added that price increases over the next year and subscriber growth remain two key debates among investors regarding Netflix stock.
"We increase our net add assumptions in all markets to reflect solid third-party data trends."
The Neutral rating comes with Netflix shares up over 45% year-to-date, outperforming the 20% gain of the S&amp;P 500. The analyst said Netflix stock trades with "a host of positive operating cadence in 2025 and 2026 at current levels."
Macquarie on NFLX: Nollen is bearish on traditional media stocks and has Outperform ratings on several streaming pure plays, including Netflix.
"Netflix has continued to power ahead, in anticipation of a possible price increase in the U.S.," Nollen said.
The analyst said positive updates on the company's ad-supported tier and enthusiasm for live sports are also helping the company for the near-term outlook.
"Ad tech integrations and the construction of an in-house data stack and audience graph should produce good advertising growth over the next two years, if not immediately."
Advertising monetization could take time, the analyst cautions.
Nollen said a pricing increase could be one of the company's biggest catalysts. The last price increase on the standard plan came in January 2022, and Hulu and Max are now more expensive than Netflix's standard plan.
"We think Netflix boasts strong pricing power."
NFLX Price Action: Netflix stock is down 1.5% to $711.86 on Monday, versus a 52-week trading range of $344.73 to $736.00. Netflix stock is up 52.7% year-to-date in 2024.

Netflix Set To Capitalize On Ad-Supported Tier, Price Increase: Analyst Says Streamer 'Boasts Pricing Power' Ahead Of Q3 Earnings

Iridium Communications (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/irdm#NASDAQ">IRDM</a>) is slated to release third-quarter 2024 earnings on Oct. 17, before market open.
The Zacks Consensus estimate for revenues is pegged at $205.7 million, indicating an increase of 4.1% from the year-ago level. The consensus estimate for earnings per share is pegged at 20 cents, unchanged in the past 60 days. In the year-ago quarter, the company reported a loss of 1 cent.
IRDM&#39;s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in two of the trailing four quarters, missed once and matched the same in the remaining quarter with the average surprise being 202.2%. In the past year, shares have lost 31.2% against sub-industry&#39;s gain of 1.3%.
<img alt="Zacks Investment Research" src="https://staticx-tuner.zacks.com/images/articles/charts/ab/81094.jpg?v=885335854" />
Image Source: Zacks Investment Research
<h2>Factors to Focus on Ahead of IRDM&#39;s Q3 Earnings</h2>
Iridium&#39;s third-quarter performance is likely to have gained momentum in the Service segment&#39;s revenues and increasing subscriber base. Our estimate for segmental revenues is pegged at $155.5 million, implying a jump of 2.3% from a year-ago reported figure.
Strengthening commercial service revenues is a key catalyst. Commercial service revenues are likely to have been aided by strength in voice and data, IoT data, broadband, hosted payload and other data service business lines. We estimate commercial service revenues to be $129 million, indicating a 2.8% climb from the prior-year actual.
Revenues from voice and data are gaining from higher demand for Iridium&#39;s push-to-talk services. Commercial IoT revenues are likely to have benefited from steady demand for personal satellite communications and traditional industrial services.
Hosted payload and other data service segment is also expected to have benefited from the new Iridium Satellite Time and Location&nbsp;offering.

<h3>Iridium Communications Inc Price and EPS Surprise</h3>

Iridium Communications Inc price-eps-surprise | Iridium Communications Inc Quote
Higher Engineering and Support revenues (due to a rise in activity with the U.S. government, especially the ongoing work on the Space Development Agency contract) bode well. IRDM expects revenues from the EMSS contract with the U.S. government to increase in the second half of 2024 with a &quot;contractual step-up&quot; in mid-September. Our estimate for quarterly revenues from the Engineering and Support segment is pegged at $27.3 million, which is up 8.1% from the year-earlier level.
Management expects Subscriber Equipment revenues to return to more normalized levels as increased demand, owing to supply-chain constraints and customer inventory buildup, stabilizes. Our estimate for quarterly revenues from the Subscriber Equipment segment is pegged at $21.2 million, indicating a 4% increase from a year ago.
Global macroeconomic weakness and inflation remain concerning. Increasing competition in the satellite communications space and higher selling, general and administrative costs and research and development expenses are other headwinds.
</div>
<h2>Key Recent Developments</h2>
On Sept. 25, 2024, Iridium announced that the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) approved its offer to broaden the capability of Narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) for Non-Terrestrial Networks into the official Work Plan for 3GPP Release 19 (set to conclude in the fourth quarter of 2025). This initiative expands the company&#39;s reach in global connectivity through its latest service, Iridium NTN Direct, which is expected to be the world&#39;s first global 5G NB-IoT service.
On Sept. 19, 2024, Iridium announced its fourth stock repurchase authorization in four years. The $500 million authorization, approved by its board of directors, is the largest in the company&#39;s history. It extends the total buyback authorization to $1.5 billion through Dec. 31, 2027.
On Sept. 3, 2024, the company introduced Iridium Certus GMDSS, making significant strides in maritime safety, compliance and communication. These terminals form a significant part of any ship&#39;s hybrid network system with improved cost structure, efficiency and performance in maritime safety and security.

The current bull market has officially hit its two-year milestone, overcoming recession fears, elevated interest<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/interest-rates"> rates, and persistent skepticism.</a>
Since bottoming out on October 12, 2022, the S&amp;P 500 has soared 63%, driven by a resilient economy and impressive corporate earnings. Gains have been further amplified by optimism around productivity and breakthroughs in artificial intelligence.
Defying all expectations, the S&amp;P 500 is now trading at record highs, solidifying this as one of the most resilient—and surprising—bull markets in history.
&#8220;It is hard to believe that only two years ago the S&amp;P 500 closed at 3,577 as investors feared inflation was entrenched after wholesale inflation data unexpectedly ticked higher that day,&#8221; said Adam Turnquist, chief technical strategist at LPL Financial.
Looking back, this day marked the birth of a bull market—one that has grown against the odds and market skepticism. Quoting legendary investor John Templeton, Turnquist added "Bull markets are born on pessimism, grow on skepticism, mature on optimism, and die on euphoria."
Veteran market strategist Ed Yardeni has been a vocal proponent of the bull market since its inception. Reflecting on the last two years, Yardeni stated, &#8220;The current bull market started two years ago, and we've loved it from the start, even though it was among the most widely hated bull markets in history.&#8221; 
Many critics expected a recession due to the Federal Reserve&#8217;s tightening cycle, but Yardeni and other bullish analysts remained confident in the economy&#8217;s resilience. As Yardeni points out, "The economy has instead remained highly resilient, which has been our forecast since early 2022."

<h3>About Netflix</h3>
Netflix's relatively simple business model involves only one business, its streaming service. It has the biggest television entertainment subscriber base in both the United States and the collective international market, with more than 275 million subscribers globally. Netflix has exposure to nearly the entire global population outside of China. The firm has traditionally avoided live programming or sports content, instead focusing on on-demand access to episodic television, movies, and documentaries. The firm recently began introducing ad-supported subscription plans, giving the firm exposure to the advertising market in addition to the subscription fees that have historically accounted for nearly all its revenue.
After a thorough review of the options trading surrounding Netflix, we move to examine the company in more detail. This includes an assessment of its current market status and performance.
<h3>Where Is Netflix Standing Right Now?</h3>

It might seem strange to say a stock is still irresistible after it&#39;s rallied 350% and just closed at a new high, but it&#39;s hard not to with Netflix, Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nflx#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>). For a company that had to watch its shares lose 80% of their value just 2 years ago, it&#39;s been a remarkable turnaround and one that looks likely to continue.&nbsp;
During the pandemic-fuelled bull run, Netflix found itself a key member of the much-acclaimed FAANG group of tech stocks. But as the bubble started to pop around November 2022, they were the stock that fell the hardest and further. For investors who managed to ride out that volatility or who have been able to get involved during an earlier phase of the current rally, it must be a particularly sweet turn of events.&nbsp;
As we round the corner into the last few months of the year, it&#39;s Netflix&#39;s shares that have tacked on the most value in the past 12 months and, in many ways, look the strongest heading into 2025. So what&#39;s behind the recent success of the streaming giant, and what makes them still so irresistible?&nbsp;
<h2>Bullish Fundamentals&nbsp;</h2>
Well for starters, the company has managed to turn its fundamental performance around, and absolutely crushed analyst expectations for its most recent earnings report. It was their highest ever revenue print and one of their most profitable quarters ever. This momentum has continued into October, with fresh headlines this week showing the company&#39;s UK subsidiary closed out 2023 with a record revenue of more than $2 billion.&nbsp;
The analysts have not lost sight of this strong fundamental performance, either. Since the end of the summer, they have been making a steady stream of bullish calls on Netflix shares. Both Evercore and Pivotal had Buy ratings at the end of August, the latter giving the stock a street-high price target of $900.&nbsp;
These were added to this week by the teams over at Piper Sandler, TD Cowen and JPMorgan Chase, who all reiterated their Buy ratings on Netflix shares as well. Even though their price targets aren&#39;t quite as lofty as Pivotals, which points to a targeted upside of some 25%, they were both well ahead of the $727 that the stock closed at on Wednesday evening.&nbsp;
<h2>Optimistic Outlook for Netflix</h2>
Much of the bullish narrative revolves around Netflix&#39;s impressive subscriber growth, which has been landing in ahead of expectations and is on track to hit 370 million this year. There&#39;s also Netflix&#39;s strong positioning from a market share perspective, with bullish analysts seeing it as the premier dominant paid global streaming service.&nbsp;
In addition, the company&#39;s growth in both average revenue per user and free cash flow have both been earmarked as key tailwinds that should continue powering the stock&#39;s to highs in the coming months. Evercore even went so far as to say that Netflix is in &quot;the strongest position financially, fundamentally, and competitively&quot; that they have ever seen.&nbsp;
<h2>Getting Involved with Netflix Stock</h2>
However, that&#39;s not to say investors should expect it to be all plain sailing. While the majority of analysts are bullish on Netflix, there are some who have taken a more cautious stance. Earlier this week saw the team at Barclays downgrade their rating on Netflix shares to a rare Sell. In a note to investors they wrote &quot;Netflix&#39;s premium valuation is predicated on revenue growth being at least in the low double-digit range, which in our view, will get increasingly difficult&quot;.&nbsp;
And while the past month has seen the likes of Rosenblatt Securities and China Renaissance stop short of rating the stock a full Buy with their updates, they held off moving Netflix to a Sell, choosing instead to rate it a Neutral. It&#39;s something for investors to consider, but it&#39;s worth pointing out that these more bearish calls are very much in the minority. Looking at MarketBeat&#39;s analyst forecast tool, we can see that out of 36 analyst ratings on Netflix, only 7% rate it a Sell, while close to 70% rate it a Buy.&nbsp;
Based at the current price action ahead of next week&#39;s earnings report, it&#39;s fair to say that Wall Street has no hesitations about continuing to buy into Netflix at these levels.

Streaming giant Netflix Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) is adding a new live weekly talk show <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/streaming">with comedian John Mulaney</a>.
What Happened: According <a href="https://variety.com/2024/tv/news/netflix-john-mulaney-live-weekly-talk-show-1236174700/">to</a> Variety, citing Netflix chief content officer Bela Bajaria, the streaming platform is adding a live talk show with Mulaney starting in 2025. 
The announcement underscores one of the company's main strategies, which is to grow live content in an effort to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41123711/netflix-stock-could-get-boost-from-nfl-games-squid-game-season-2-analyst-says-conte"> reach new subscribers.</a>
Netflix currently has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/07/39849026/netflix-q2-earnings-highlights-revenue-beat-eps-beat-advertising-revenue-more-meaningful-squid-game">over 275 million paid subscribers</a>.
Bajaria highlighted the company's working relationship with Mulaney, which included standup specials and the live talk-show series &#8220;Everybody's in LA.&#8221;
Bajaria praised Mulaney's content as "bold and original and fresh and then unpredictable."
"And I think it'll be really fun to get to do a live show with him."

Why It Matters: Netflix sees live content as a way to increase demand from advertisers. It might also serve as a catalyst to boost subscribers to ad-free plans.
And while viewership for "Everybody's in LA" wasn't huge, according to Bajaria. Netflix has launched other talk shows in the past that did not catch on with viewers.
"I think we have to continue to be bold and take risks and swings,&#8221; Bajaria said. &#8220;And I think it would be too easy and too safe to go, ‘oh, well, talk hasn't worked, so let's not try this thing.'"
Netflix&#8217;s live content thus far has mostly been centered around comedy, such as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/23/03/31206415/heres-how-to-watch-the-netflix-live-chris-rock-special-that-will-include-jokes-about-will-s">the standup special featuring</a> Chris Rock in March 2023. 
Netflix is also pushing deeper into its sports content. The company will stream two National Football League games on Christmas Day 2024 and several in the future, and stream a live boxing match between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson on Nov. 15.
It also inked a $5 billion, 10-year deal with TKO Group Holdings Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TKO#NYSE">TKO</a>) to start airing WWE&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/01/36738264/netflix-enters-the-ring-clinches-5b-wwe-deal-adds-live-wrestling-to-streaming-lineup">pro-wrestling content in 2025</a>. 
Reports also link Netflix to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/09/40887242/could-gordon-ramsay-billie-eilish-kevin-hart-and-shaq-sweating-over-hot-wings-ignite-netfli">wanting to launch live versions </a>of "Hot Ones.&#8221; The popular video series from BuzzFeed features celebrities answering questions as they eat hot wings.
Price Action: Netflix stock trades at $730.75 on Thursday versus a 52-week trading range of $344.73 to $733.85. Netflix stock is up 56% year-to-date in 2024.

Morgan Stanley analyst Benjamin Swinburne maintains Netflix (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) with a Overweight and raises the price target from $780 to $820.

Morgan Stanley Maintains Overweight on Netflix, Raises Price Target to $820

&nbsp;Amazon.com, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) and&nbsp;Apple Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) have announced a collaboration, as per which Apple TV+ will be available through&nbsp;Prime Video.
What Happened: Apple TV+ will join Prime Video's collection of over&nbsp;100 add-on subscription options in&nbsp;the U.S., which include Warner&nbsp;Bros. Discovery's Max, Paramount Global's&nbsp;Paramount+, Sony's Crunchyroll, and Amazon-owned MGM+.
Starting later this month, Apple TV+ will be offered as a $9.99 per month add-on subscription through Amazon Prime Video in the U.S.
Prime members who subscribe will gain access to a wide range of premium content, including popular series like&nbsp;&#8220;Severance,&#8221;&nbsp;&#8220;Slow Horses,&#8221;&nbsp;&#8220;The Morning Show,&#8221;&nbsp;&#8220;Hijack,&#8221; and&nbsp;&#8220;Loot,&#8221; along with upcoming titles such as&nbsp;&#8220;Palm Royale.&#8221;
Subscribers will also enjoy blockbuster films like&nbsp;&#8220;Wolfs&#8221;&nbsp;and&nbsp;&#8220;The Instigators,&#8221; as well as Major League Soccer and Major League Baseball events.

Mike Hopkins, SVP and Head&nbsp;of Prime Video and Amazon&nbsp;MGM Studios, described Prime Video as a &#8220;first-stop entertainment destination offering a&nbsp;wide selection of premium programming.&#8221;
&nbsp;Eddy Cue, Apple's SVP of Services stated that the tech giant wants the Apple TV+ library to be &#8220;available to as many viewers as possible.&#8221;
Amazon will receive a percentage&nbsp;of subscription revenue for streaming&nbsp;services purchased via Prime Video, although the exact terms remain undisclosed, <a href="https://variety.com/2024/tv/news/amazon-prime-video-apple-tv-plus-1236173900/">reported</a> Variety.

Why It Matters: As of April,&nbsp;Prime Video had surpassed 200&nbsp;million monthly viewers, according to CEO Andy Jassy. The addition of Apple TV+ is expected to further increase the platform&#8217;s appeal.
Apple TV+, despite being one of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/04/38024244/appletv-a-streaming-winner-new-survey-shows-platform-has-smallest-library-highest-rated-con">smaller players in the streaming market</a>, has been aggressively spending on key content and sports media rights to boost its platform and subscriber base.
Earlier this year, a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/04/38024244/appletv-a-streaming-winner-new-survey-shows-platform-has-smallest-library-highest-rated-con">study by Self Financial showed</a> that AppleTV+ ranks first in terms of content quality. The rankings were determined by IMDb ratings, with a score of 8.0 or higher regarded as excellent for the study.
Although AppleTV+ led overall, Prime Video had the highest number of top-rated movies relative to the monthly spend per subscriber.
Meanwhile, Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) ranked first for the most shows with a rating of 8 or above, boasting 837 titles, followed by Walt Disney Co.&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) Hulu/Disney+ with 637 titles in second place.
Previously, it was also reported that Amazon intends to increase <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/10/41162458/amazon-ceo-andy-jassy-said-prime-video-will-have-meaningfully-fewer-ads-than-rivals-2-month">the number of advertisements</a> on its Prime Video platform starting next year.

<h3>About Netflix</h3>
Netflix's relatively simple business model involves only one business, its streaming service. It has the biggest television entertainment subscriber base in both the United States and the collective international market, with more than 275 million subscribers globally.

The firm has traditionally avoided live programming or sports content, instead focusing on on-demand access to episodic television, movies, and documentaries.
