Everything that matters this morning
Netflix lost 200,000 subscribers in the first three months of this year, the streaming service said as it shared its Q1 2022 results last night (19 April). While the service has long eschewed advertising in favour of its subscription only model, CEO Reed Hastings suggested in the company’s earnings call that the brand is quite open to low cost advertising solutions. This would see the streaming giant advertising on low-end plans and to have lower prices with advertising. Those who have followed Netflix know that I’ve been against the complexity of advertising and a big fan of the simplicity of subscription, said Hastings. But as much I’m a fan of that, I’m a bigger fan of consumer choice. And allowing consumers who would like to have a lower price and are advertising-tolerant get what they want makes a lot of sense. The shift in position is down to multiple factors impacting Netflix’s growth, with the company saying it will now go after viewers who do not pay for an account and instead share other users’ details. Hastings called this group of viewers a tremendous opportunity, as the company looks to translate them into paying consumers. Last month it began a scheme charging users for sharing passwords between households, trialled initially in Chile, Costa Rica and Peru. Netflix also said that pulling out of Russia has caused a subscriber loss of 700,000, while increased competition and the economy are also contributing factors. The streamer now has 221.6 million subscribers, down from 221.8 million last quarter. The company made $1.6bn (£1.2bn) in profit over the quarter and $7.8m (£5.9m) in sales.

If you watch a lot of movies and TV shows, you might have noticed that over the last few decades everything has gotten a lot more. No matter the kind of story being told, a sheen of cool blue or gray would wash over everything, muting the colors and providing an overall veneer of serious business.
So many TV shows and movies now have a dull filter applied to every scene, one that cuts away vibrancy and trends toward a boring sameness. Every frame’s color scheme ends up feeling the same as every other frame. And when there are so many projects using similar techniques, you end up with a world of boring visuals that don’t stand out.
