4 REASONS WHY NETFLIX IS BAD NEWS. 1. Netflix content for Nigerian market will have limited / lower content compared to American content. 2. Will be dependent of heavy data usage thus will spend more on data. 3. Must stream high quality videos. Erratic Internet access and supply will make buffering a problem 4. Unique monopoly. Channel O and Nigerian music videos Saga comes to mind. Considering Netflix is Internet based while DSTV uses a totally different platform, I don't think it will force DSTV to reduce prices. Infact, I expect multichoice prices to go up based on high cost of dollar. Best option, get Kodi 2 Likes |

Good news. They should partner with mobile networks just like Dobox did. Anything less than that is a miss. Imagine using your data to stream a 4k movie. |

Blackman is just stupid and the average Nigerian is daft Netflix came into Nigeria we shall now shout kumbaya and hurray Instead of us supporting our own irokotv and other digital content entertainment distribution we are here clapping for one oyibo firm ..the way you clapped for shoprite and dstv They come here make all the money and take it back to their country we continue to be consumers and skabes to foreign establishment Shame on us all Why can't we just produce for yourselves at least Sometime I feel so ashamed been a Nigeria Now they pushed this to front page ... This is how they killed hitv and mytv for dstv to gain Cant we have our own entertainment distribution for ourselves and sell the rights and franchise to them Sony and iPod has USA Alibaba has China India has their But the stupid Nigerians will jump and leap for joy when the oyibo comes to colonise and call it investment Tomorrow you will say no job..where as you have refused to support your own due to hate and tribalism Fvck Netflix 5 Likes 1 Share |

christopher123: We're in the era of globalization; companies have to be competitive and adaptable to change if they must survive. irokotv have been accused of cheating producers and directors. Netflix didn't only come to Nigeria, it also came to 129 countries. Disruption and change is what most Nigerian firms need now. This is where management consulting and advisory services come to play. BTW, Sony is Japanese, iPOD is American. Patriotism doesn't mean one should have to support/buy products and services that has less quality, that's blind patriotism. Nigerian companies must improve their services and products. 5 Likes |

christopher123: Globalisation didn't make us not being able to refine our crude oil. There's absolutely no political will to ensure petroleum refining in Nigeria, besides for refining to take place subsidy must go; which the current government when in the opposition was against. Hitv got what it deserve. Instead of Shaibu to further invest his earnings into the firm and raise quality standards, he went on a partying spree, buying a Range Rover Sport and harassing viewing centers owners. He was not astute enough. The same globalisation you're against is what has enabled Dangote to expand into other African countries, Glo to be in Ghana. Stop supporting ineptitude in our companies because of patriotism. 2 Likes |

I'm noot sure netflix will record instant success. Netflix relies on good/fast internet. Decent internet in nigeria at the moment is in the region of 7-15k per month for a home user. Unless netflix is ready to put a cap of 5k per month on streaming (and downloading if it applies) then I doubt it'll be a hit. DSTV with sports goes for 15k about So if you take the lower value of 7k per month for internet and 5k being the cost of monthly subscription then I believe they'd be in for the killing. And then we can begin to pay DSTV less attention. Hopefully, startimes will get a share of the sports bouquet that DSTV currently has |

christopher123:I don't see how the term globalization suits only Western multinationals. The term was coined as a guide for all nations participating in business. If it was designed for only western nations then foreign schools would not have let me enroll for an internatioal business degree, infact the very mention of globalization in africa would have been forbidden. The truth is most of our indigenous companies can not compete on a global scale so they settle for a home market presence till they get pushed out of the market by leading international brands. Don't blame the new competitor, blame the government for not supporting indigenous companies and blame those companies for remaining stale, even mediocre in most cases. 1 Like |

christopher123:True only if the potential existed to begin with. However with nollywood I see no improvement even with protectionism for the next 50 years. The producers are content dishing mediocrity upon mediocrity year after year. Let Netflix shows make them sit up and move to an international standard. It's only we the consumers who'd benefit in the end. 3 Likes |

charix: Not quite true, mate. Look at Nigeria's music industry 15 years ago and compare it with what we have now. You'll notice there's been some improvement. This is cos govt promoted music at the local scene. What we're listening to right now is only a reflection of what kinda people we are and what we want to hear. |

Gerrard59:: Trade protectionism is used by countries when they think their industries are being damaged by unfair competition from foreign industries. It's a defensive measure, and is usually politically motivated. It can often work, in the short run. However, in the long run it usually does the opposite of its intentions. It can make the country, and the industries it is trying to protect, less competitive in international trade. |
Re: 5 Reasons Why NETFLIX In Nigeria Is A Good News For All by christopher123(m): 3:34pm On Jan 08, 2016 |
Ignyte: Advantages of Trade Protectionism If a country is trying to grow strong in a new industry, tariffs will protect it from foreign competitors. This allows companies in the new industry time to learn how to produce the good efficiently, and develop their own competitive advantages. Protectionism also temporarily creates jobs for domestic workers. As domestic companies are protected by tariffs, quotas or subsidies, they will hire locally. This will occur until other countries retaliate by erecting their own protectionism within that industry. |
