 Alright, this is a review of That Will Never Work, The Birth of Netflix and the Amazing Life of an Idea by Mark Randolph, who is the founder of Netflix, or one of the founders. Reed Hastings Be The Other. Netflix started a revolution. This was a very fun read, humorous, and it's great for startups. How when you look at the title, that will never work. You don't want to be around that pessimistic attitude. You want to be around that you can do, spirit, optimism. And this is great for any startup where no one will believe you. No doesn't mean no. I love that he shared the story of being an entrepreneur and building the business, the struggle. An interesting point I want to point out is I've never bought the stock of this company. I appreciate what they did, but I didn't see the profits, hence I chose Amazon. And these types of startups you want to learn how to pivot. And for Netflix it had the Renting vs Buying model, that true garage startup, and this might have been the big breakthrough for the sharing and gig economy. How you deal with big dogs such as Blockbuster and Sony, and not letting the ego get in the way of the business in the future. Mark understood that and gave him props for it. And Netflix's model was crazy. It was early in getting the DVDs to rent, free, and getting more. The subscription model was a breakthrough. And he gives an interesting story on Amazon, and Amazon is one of the big dogs Z. I would consider the most powerful business in America, as you probably already know from all of my other videos. And he gives the angle of how Jeff Bezos was, a competitor yet in an alliance. Netflix was very controversial because you could rent their discs and you could copy them during the CD and DVD burning area of the late 90s and early 2000s. Before the streaming, and Netflix gets credit for breaking that Hollywood model, and that only legit TV can be on awards. They pay the model for other competitors such as Hulu, Disney, HBO, Twitch, YouTube, any type of streaming service. And Netflix came as a competitor, knocked down Blockbuster. Even the story of Blockbuster and how they related with Mark Randolph was so hilarious in this book. You have to read it. Hopefully you've read this book. He had to compete with movie theaters as well. Even though they're dead, probably right now, with the pandemic, AMC is probably dead. And you see interesting drama currently in 2020 with they won't play Universal Studio movies because it didn't go its way with Hollywood. Very interesting era. And by the way, you can check out my everything store review of Amazon. Even though Netflix competes with Amazon, Netflix being movies and kind of a dumb down entertainment versus say Kindle ebooks. And you don't want to watch life pass you by, no work, no risk or imagination. And you choose that path that can be detriment to Hollywood agenda and the evil connections. Hopefully it's not going to be an idiocracy or even entertained. Do you even need to leave the home? No mailbox. Just clicking the buttons on the stream service. We're almost being conditioned by TV. It sucks. Netflix disrupted culture. That retail and brick and mortar is dead. Ecommerce is the future and it exposed the Hollywood gatekeepers. You don't have to pay for that overpriced ticket. Even though it was fun to go out, you don't have to pay that fee. It is close to merit as possible. There is merit. And reading this book, you understand Netflix's culture in the future. I will be viewing other Netflix books as well as having a Netflix review on culture at some point. See the link below for Netflix culture, avoiding the rules, sharing the info, merit. And it's funny that they had unlimited vacation time in a cool place. I talked to a few Netflix employees and learned a lot. As for me, I enjoyed the Netflix shows early on, the independent films. And the big show for me was Breaking Bad. I don't watch much movies or TV because it can be poison. Life was better without smartphones and Netflix. You will never get to individualism watching movies. Go outside. Subscribe to Netflix or you can subscribe to this channel. Or you can choose a lesser from two eagles. Which one is better for you? And to end it, that will never work. We'll be told to you often. And you gotta love the you can't do it mentality of Mark Rand. You don't wanna doubt yourself. Belief is powerful. Cicero said, a man of courage is also full of faith. Cold approach. And this is such a fun book to read. Make sure you read this book. Alright, it will work.
