Netflix is a popular subscription-based streaming service that offers a vast library of movies, TV shows, documentaries, and other entertainment content. It was founded on August 29, 1997, by Reed Hastings and Marc Randolph in Los Gatos, California.
Initially, Netflix started as a DVD rental service, where customers could rent DVDs online and have them delivered to their homes by mail. However, with the rise of digital media and internet streaming, Netflix shifted its focus to online streaming in 2007. This move proved to be a game-changer, allowing subscribers to instantly stream a wide range of content on various devices such as computers, smartphones, tablets, smart TVs, and gaming consoles.
Netflix quickly expanded its library by producing its own original content, which includes movies, TV series, and documentaries. Some of its original series, like “Stranger Things,” “The Crown,” “House of Cards,” and “Orange Is the New Black,” have gained immense popularity and critical acclaim, attracting a large and dedicated fan base.
