06:10 - Netflix Eyeing 700 Original TV Series & Movies in 2018
Netflix, set to spend upwards of $8 billion on content in 2018, will have in the neighborhood of 700 original TV shows and movies on the service this year, according to CFO David Wells.
The huge bucket of content is driving up Netflix’s subscriber base, said Wells, speaking Tuesday at the Morgan Stanley Technology, Media & Telecom Conference. The “700-range” figure he cited includes 80 original productions from outside the U.S., such as psychological thriller “Dark” from Germany.
The company’s strategy continues to be, “Let’s continue to add content — it’s working, it’s driving growth,” Wells said.
He also said there’s “no religion” at Netflix about the source of programming, although the company increasingly intends to produce its own content. “People don’t care where the stories come from,” he said. “We’re about having the best content. We don’t necessarily have to do it ourselves.”
Netflix ended 2017 with 117.6 million streaming members worldwide. “There’s more non-members than members of Netflix – that’s our opportunity,” Wells said, citing an estimated 700 million broadband users globally (excluding China).
