  • Netflix's problem is that it fundamentally has little leverage with the studios
  • doubling its price
  • To ensure Netflix's survival, CEO and Co-Founder Reed Hastings ultimately has two  options: he must make Netflix a content player in its own right - something he's attempting to do by reportedly paying more than $100 million for Netflix's first original TV series, The David Finch/Kevin Spacey thriller "House of Cards". Or he can merge with a player that guarantees him distribution such as Hulu, Google, Amazon, or Dish, which has its own content-streaming network built from satellite business and the ruins of the Blockbuster video chain.
