The well-known streaming platform, Netflix, could think about continuing with its service through another type of video production. The service is possibly considering moving into live video streaming. However, this type of function has already existed for Apple TV + for more than a month. Users of this platform already enjoy this service, while Netflix possibly believes that it is a good idea to follow this step.
One of the greats of streaming and pioneers of it, Netflix also possibly believes that the best way to keep updating its content is this. After several reforms that they have had, it may also believe that the immediate success to rise after the multiple platforms that came to compete are more aware of their content and what they offer.
Netflix has maintained harsh criticism, as well as resounding global successes. Therefore, subscribers always have expectations of what the platform can or cannot offer. The menu of the service has been at the service of the user for years, constantly being maintained and changing from time to time, so this new function would be a breath of fresh air for customers.
Netflix and its possible foray into Live Streaming
According to the Deadline medium, the streaming platform would possibly be thinking of adding the feature to live stream content for customers. What is clear is that Netflix has already been working on this for some time. The service previously confirmed that it would have its efforts in testing how to introduce this feature to its platform. However, perhaps nothing has really been specified, since there is no announcement at the moment of the official entry of live streaming.
For now, Netflix plans to use this interesting function and its capacity for series of the type reality showalso those focused on competition. For example, referring to the series on dance challenges “Dance 100” as well as festival presentations such as Netflix Is A Joke, having live sections.
What would the live streaming function look like?
Live broadcasts is something that has been promoted by other platforms such as Twitch or YT where, although less popular, it is possible to see multiple creators. Netflix in this case, I would drink a little of some features presented on these platforms making the show much more interactive.
This rumor could make more sense, as it is believed that it could include functions such as voting by users, especially with respect to programs with contests or reality. In this type of program, users would actively participate by choosing winners through polls while they are watching it live.
In case the platform decides to go ahead with this proposal, there would be certain beneficial changes in the company. This could even have more discipline regarding its content and alliances. Perhaps having live broadcasts in collaboration with other stations or companies and established schedules. It could even collaborate with other streaming platforms that are already more established and with more knowledge of how to perform this function, reaching TV networks, YouTube TV or Twitch.
Despite the innovations in the service, the unusual proposals and even the failures in new projects, Netflix this time was overtaken by Apple. As for this streaming function, Apple TV + would have already started “Friday Night Baseball” from April. The alliance of the Cupertino company with the MLB has been online for more than a month, adding content via live streaming for all users on its service.
It should be noted that at least in terms of Netflix, they do not plan to use their possible live programs function to broadcast any kind of sport.
