Subject: Re: [AusNOG] Netflix coming to Australia

Actually, someone pointed out to me that Netflix announced a couple of days ago that they are going into Austria... could a journalist really have been that stupid?

The parent company of foxtel just pulled an article that promoted a rival service to foxtel? Colour me surprised.

Surely an article that would generate that many hits would not be pulled down by a news organisation simple because it turned out to be false?  When has that stopped them before?  However, if it were true and lawyers got involved due to a leak/ breach of confidentiality?

Yes, I noticed that... and it can't be searched... wonder what that means.

I am not sure why they don't consider Netflix as a competitor... I guess it is all a matter of perspective.

FetchTV is a replacement of the 'cable company' business model - they compete with Foxtel to deliver you TV channels etc
Netflix is a replacement of the 'video rental' business model - they compete with VideoEzy/Blockbuster etc to deliver you a large library of content to watch on demand.

Additionally FetchTV is normally delivered as a box that plugs into your TV, Netflix is normally delivered as a app/service that you install on something. Fetch is saying they want their box to be one of thoes somethings. In the US netflix has started to partner with cable companies to install Netflix on your traditional cable box.
