Not wondering for employment or hiring wondering about for my portfolio and investment strategy. I know Netflix used to be but seems like all entertainment companies are streaming now. Netflix’s competitive advantage was their tech. Now it’s their entertainment IP ? Their tech doesn’t seem like it’s above all the other streaming services in any way. If so though please inform me

    I find these questions a little silly. Isn't Facebook and Google just advertisement companies by this logic? Amazon a logistics company, uber a taxi company, etc

    They all have interesting tech challenges and pay engineers well to solve them and innovate. That's enough to be a "tech" company imo

    • Given that netflix’s streaming and recommendation have mature, it might less incentivized to invest in tech. On the other hand, its competitors are catching up tech barrier and streaming war is more about content rather than delivery (streaming and recommendations).

    Netflix has way better tech than the rest of the streaming offerings except Prime Video.

    It’s orders of magnitude better than Prime Video.
