There was some really interesting news from Netflix this week. Just as the platform shutters its AAA gaming studio, it's launching a new feature focused on people talking and sharing. Moments, which is now available on iOS, lets users quickly save and share favorite scenes from any series or movie, and I think that's huge for social media. Before this, you (and me) likely found yourself fumbling to describe the epic plot twist or funny exchange. Now, with moments, that exact clip can be shared across social media, and followers can click on the shared post and go straight to that scene. I can't understate how huge this is, especially considering content piracy and IP laws. While working for Netflix as a vendor, I've learned that they have a unique and refreshing view on publicity, and this move feels like a home run. Netflix added 5.1 million subscribers in Q3 2024, for a total of 282 million. However, the growth is showing signs of plateauing, as 8 million users were added in the previous quarter. My interpretation is that Moments is Netflix's play to boost engagement and bring in new viewers in a very competitive and challenging streaming market. I love it!
