If they don't get better content then it would truly be a waste.

In addition, according to the street.com, Apple is hot and heavy in talks with Hollywood honchos to develop original TV shows and to negotiate other content deals to be offered on iTunes.

Quote- A bundled offering of all current iTunes and Netflix content would be significantly more affordable for existing and future subscribers of both companies the world over, which could enable a much faster new subscriber addition rate for the combined company. I know my family would be thrilled to combine our current Netflix and Apple subscriptions into one discounted package.

Quote- Netflix is already way ahead of Apple in terms of content deals already signed with Hollywood and the networks for movies, tv shows et al. A takeover of Netflix will save Apple many quarters if not years worth of negotiating time. In addition, Netflix has a ton of winners in its current original programming content library as well.

They probably wouldn't change anything

They didn't change beats

Although Netflix would bring them in SO much cash

People are canceling their cable subscriptions at a rapid rate and internet streaming is clearly the future

Plus Netflix is like 60%? of the movie streaming business

They're probably better off building their own mess. In a couple years, Netflix will have to renegotiate their licensing deals &  stuff, so Apple will be back at square one in 2019 or so if they bought Netflix.

Plus I really don't like the idea of one of the most notoriously restricted company having control of THAT much media streaming content :dead:

Hit the nail right on the head with this. No thx!

And let me step up and defend Netflix a bit. They are improving with the content. My List on 'flix kinda slays!
