Netflix's Real Problem | The Wrap Media - 0 views

  • 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.

Communication Processes for Virtual Organizations - 0 views

  •  
    "Communication is fundamental to any form of organizing but is preeminent in virtual organizations. Virtual organizations are characterized by (a) highly dynamic processes, (b) contractual relationships among entities, (c) edgeless, permeable boundaries, and (d) reconfigurable structures. Relative to more traditional settings, communication processes that occur in virtual contexts are expected to be rapid, customized, temporary, greater in volume, more formal, and more relationship-based. To glean insight into communication processes for virtual organizations, we draw on the rich body of literature on synchronous and asynchronous electronic organizational communication. The vast set of empirical findings regarding mediated communication can foreshadow how communication will change as firms "go virtual." Six areas of electronic communication research provide implications for the major aspects of virtual organization design: (1) communication volume and efficiency, (2) message understanding, (3) virtual tasks, (4) lateral communication, (5) norms of technology use, and (6) evolutionary effects.
