In a revealing new interview, Zack Snyder revealed Netflix’s internal strategies for measuring viewership, and it exposes the inflation streaming services apply to their own audiences. https://www.inverse.com/entertainment/zack-snyder-netflix-distribution-m...
It's definitely confusing, Amanda Toney. Some streamers count it a view when you start the movie/show (even if you don't watch it), some streamers count it a view if you watch a certain amount of the movie/show, and I think I've heard some streamers count it a view if you watch the whole movie/show.
The article says, "Then there’s the biggest logical jump: Netflix assumes two people per screening. While multiple people watching the same Netflix account is common, solo watching is also incredibly popular, especially since content is viewable on personal devices." I didn't know the number of viewers was part of views.
Netflix... doesn't seem to know the truth of the adage "don't believe your own press" Especially when their numbers are private numbers and manipulated to push whoever they wish, even they have a hard time knowing what is really going on. One more reason they are risking default on several billions coming due in the next 2 years.
Shadow Dragu-Mihai, Esq., Ipg I was talking to RB a while ago about Netflix’s debt situation and he said it wasn’t the case. I’m not sure who to believe!
