Because of its series and movies, Netflix has become the king of streaming. (Netflix)
Netflix has become the most important streaming platform in recent years and its success has led most entertainment companies to launch their own platforms, such as Disney+ and HBO, among others.
Although it started as a company that offered the DVD rental service through postal mail, it was in 2011 when the company started operations outside the United States and Canada, offering its catalog by streaming in Latin America and the Caribbean. A year later it would also reach some countries in Europe and later in Asia.
In 2011 the company ventured to start producing its own content that started with the successful series House of cards, which led it to create its studio in 2016. By 2018 it would already be defined as a global internet television channel .
Previously, on January 16, 2014, one of the most important moments arrived for Netflix: being nominated for the first time in its history for an Oscar Award with the documentary The Square.
Its catalog includes films that have been winners of an Academy Award, multi-award-winning and viral series such as Squid Game, or important products in Spanish such as Money Heist and Elite.
However, 2022 did not look good for the streaming content platform, which received its biggest blow in a decade and that is that in the first quarter it lost up to 200,000 subscribers, which added to the 900,000 viewers who also abandoned the platform in the second quarter of the year.
That minor setback was “fixed” in the third quarter, when it posted a gain of 2.4 million subscribers fueled by titles like Dahmer, a new season of Stranger Things and other hits.
Netflix Party, also known as Teleparty, has become one of the most popular applications that has given the streaming platform a plus, since it has allowed users to watch the same content at the same time with friends, partner or family even though They are not in the same space.
Created as an extension of Google, this tool mixes the ability to simultaneously stream with a text message box where participants can exchange their thoughts in real time.
Although this tool has not been developed as such by Netflix, just go to the Teleparty page and install the Google Chrome extension. Once installed, you must open the account, play what you want to see and click on the Netflix Party (NP) icon that will turn red and then give the “start party” option that will provide a link that can be shared with more people to join.
