'And The Winner Is'

And The Winner Is!
This year's Academy Award winner is, hands-down, Netflix. Amassing 15 Award nominations, Netflix was only bested by Fox/Searchlight with 20 and Disney/Universal with 17 each. Amazon, Netflix's content streaming arch rival, picked up three nominations, as did Paramount. Netflix's showing puts it on an equal footing with the major studios and foretells the future of movie distribution. 

Cinema exhibs take note: it's time to seriously consider using Netflix for distribution of their original content. Even if released day-and-date its content consumers want to view and screening by cinemas  will bring in viewers.  Don't dismiss Netflix's current and future influence and clout in the movie industry. Forming a relationship with Netflix would be very wise and prudent.


The big winner at this year's Oscars clearly has already been given and accepted - it's Netflix.

Just saying,

Jim Lavorato, President
Entertainment Equipment Corp.
