A friend lamented to me
that most streaming apps were terrible.
He admired Netflix more
having experienced these other apps.
The issue is…
my friend would think
Netflix was garbage
if it continued to offer
the same version
it first launched.
Netflix has been finetuning
their streaming app
for years.
They tweak and test constantly
and years of doing that
should create a great product.
New streaming apps
will never replicate Netflix.
They will always be
X years behind on the tweaks.
What they CAN do
is provide a DIFFERENT experience.
They can bring something unique
to the industry.
Me too products
will never be as good
as a constantly refined original.
Consider providing a different product.
