Netflix: House of Cards
Premieres tomorrow. All 13 episodes drop at once.
Heres an interesting nugget from a Forbes column: http://www.forbes.com/sites/dorothyp...s-this-friday/ But BTIG analyst Richard Greenfield thinks that if House Of Cards is a success, Netflix could also start demanding a fee from the broadband suppliers that plug their fat pipes into our homes and let us stream House Of Cards in the first place. You can read Greenfield’s full report here (subscription required) but his basic idea is that the cable companies are taking about $40 bucks a month from you for your Internet service and not sharing any of that with the content side because for the most part, they are paying networks like AMC and Discovery a per subscriber fee on the cable side. If Netflix’s exclusive programming takes off and viewers demand it, Netflix could be in a position to start taking a per subscriber fee from the cable guys on the Internet side. It’s not a completely unprecedented idea. According to Greenfield, ESPN gets a per sub fee for ESPN 3 from broadband. It would be a bold move on Hastings’ part and one that he’s not yet in a position to make. But if shows like House Of Cards help Netflix become the next HBO, the service could be looking at a whole new stream of revenue. |

Great speech.
Amazon and Hulu are starting to create original series now as well. Amazon put like 8 pilots up at once a few months ago and asked viewers to vote on which ones they wanted to bring to series. Pretty cool idea.

Goddamn it. I search for a release date for Season 2 and all I get is a bunch of bullshit conjecture.

I'm guessing around 2/1/14. I think that's a year after Season 1 aired.

Also what I like about this format of TV show is that you can watch it all in 4 days, and that means that by the time the next season rolls around it's been a whole year since you watched it and you're more likely to want to watch the whole season over again.

I'll probably go on a binge for a couple weekends before the next season drops so I can refresh my mind. |

Just having the option to do so is fantastic, IMO. Pretty forward thinking.

Are they saying House of Cards is going to be a romantic favorite?
