"Netflix has reshaped entertainment consumption worldwide. Before winning the streaming wars, Netflix was already transforming the home entertainment industry.

Netflix's business model disrupted the traditional movie rental model by offering convenience and eliminating late fees."

Shares reached a record $1,341.15 in summer before retreating about 18.8%, leaving long-term gains exceeding 101,000% since the IPO largely driven by pandemic-era growth. Netflix began in 1997 as a DVD-by-mail service and disrupted physical rental incumbents.
