How Netflix took on live TV — and got ready to take on the NFL

Summary

Netflix has spent the last two years slowly learning how to do live programming and live streaming.

It started with a Chris Rock comedy special last March , which was a technical success and a cultural hit.

The real tests of Netflix ’s live prowess came this fall , when the Jake Paul / Mike Tyson fight was watched by more than 65 million Netflix subscribers.

Netflix is a huge client of Amazon ’s web services, which are the backbone of most of the internet at this point.

The company is working on optimizing the algorithms that decide how to prioritize traffic and bandwidth.

Since the Paul / Tyson fight, Stone says Netflix has been trying to increase its capacity and control the flow of bandwidth more effectively.

In 2027 and 2031 , Netflix will also stream the FIFA Women’s World Cup .

In an increasingly splintered entertainment landscape, must-see live TV is more valuable than ever.

Netflix is interested in buying more of these events, but he also wants to create them.
