There was a time when Netflix was king of the world. I’ve been a Netflix subscriber since it was called Love Film, and the movies weren’t sitting waiting for you on your TV but instead were posted to you in little paper envelopes. You had to be careful with your watchlist back then, or risk being sent Vanilla Sky or Mr Magorium’s Wonder Emporium because you’d ticked them on a whim. When Netflix entered the streaming era, it completely uprooted traditional television and offered a bright new future. Flash forward a decade or so, and that future continues to expand – unfortunately for Netflix, it’s not yet clear whether it has a place in it.
