Major movie production companies are removing their contents from Netflix and starting their own streaming companies. Even Friends will be removed next month.

Netflix saw this early and started creating their own contents and adding international contents but is that enough? Can Netflix survive mostly based on its own contents?

    Netflix knows precisely what they're doing.

    This is like saying Comcast will die because no one will put their content on it.

    My bet is Netflix will eventually merge with a studio or media company, then everyone will be fine.

    • Comcast will die if no one put their content on it.

      But the content producers don't have a choice: comcast OWNS the infrastructure to deliver that content to home. No one else can build that. Netflix has a much smaller moat, you can stream from anyone. So it's not hard for a producer to pull their content from Netflix.

      Comcast owns universal (or vice versa) so they also have a content stream they control.

    Maybe but it's going to hurt.

    My money is on Disney/ABC/Marvel/ESPN being the most serious and threatening contender so far.

    All that’s going to do is push people to pirate again. No one wants to have 32 accounts with various services and have total monthly fees that add up to $$$. A few of those giants like Disney may be able to survive on their own but majority are idiots for leaving Netflix
