Netflix's DVD Service Is Coming To An End

Netflix’s DVD Service Is Coming To An End

In 1997, Marc Randolph and Reed Hastings founded Netflix, which would forever change how we watched movies. At first, subscribers could just order rental DVDs from the comfort of their own homes. That was before Netflix turned into a streaming service, which led to the downfall of companies like Blockbuster. Over the past 25 years, Netflix has continued to dominate, but now they are phasing out its DVD service. “After an incredible 25-year run, we’ve decided to wind down DVD.com later this year. Our goal has always been to provide the best service for our members but as the business continues to shrink that’s going to become increasingly difficult.” Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos said in a statement yesterday. “Those iconic red envelopes changed the way people watched shows and movies at home — and they paved the way for the shift to streaming. From the beginning, our members loved the choice and control that direct-to-consumer entertainment offered: the wide variety

Netflix Is Testing Games For TV

As far as streaming platforms go, they don’t get much bigger or better than Netflix. But, because of Netflix’s unrivaled success for multiple years, it’s led to other services set out to steal its crown. Therefore, Netflix aims to stay one step ahead of the game by potentially bringing games to the fore via its platform. At present, Netflix remains one of the leading streaming services around where TV shows and movies are concerned, but gaming has always been muted as an option for platforms such as Netflix, and it’s a format that has been used in similar scenarios with live gaming and even popular bingo games have been adapted. But why is there a belief that this could this be a reality for Netflix? Well, it turns out that Netflix is currently believed to be working on a feature that will allow users of its service to use their smartphones as a controller. And, more specifically, as a game

MGM+ Takes Us Back To The Beginning With Doc 'Amityville: An Origin Story'

MGM+ Takes Us Back To The Beginning With Doc ‘Amityville: An Origin Story’

MGM+ and director Jack Riccobono are taking us back to Amityville with the documentary Amytivlle: An Origin Story, which will explore the true story behind the world’s most infamous haunted house tale: the Amityville murders. The project is the first elevated look at every aspect of this wildly layered story about the heinous murder of a family of six that became eclipsed by paranormal controversy. The 1979 blockbuster film, The Amityville Horror, inspired by the book of the same title by Jay Anson, spawned an ever-expanding universe of movies, books, supernatural theories, and horror superfans. But the mass murder behind the hauntings—and its alleged ties to organized crime—left a long trail of questions that have never been fully explored. Rooted in the dark cultural undercurrents of the 1970s, the series features firsthand accounts from witnesses, family members, and former investigators appearing on-camera for the first time. Exclusive archival footage, newly unearthed images, and stunning original photography are woven together into the most
