Netflix is better then HBO, well not better at everything, just in subcriber revenue. This is a very important milestone for Netflix as they a relatively young company.
HBO has been around for decades, ever since 1972, and there is probably no one that hasn't heard about this TV giant and especially about their great TV series. The Sopranos, The Wire, Game of thrones are just some of the series made by HBO. Netflix is becoming more popular by the day and it's nice to see they sett their sight pretty high as they compare them self with HBO.
This news was posted on Facebook by Reed Hastings, this was his post: "Minor milestone: last quarter we passed HBO is subscriber revenue ($1.146B vs $1.141B). They still kick our ass in profits and Emmy's, but we are making progress. HBO rocks, and we are honored to be in the same league. (yes, I loved Silicon Valley and yes it hit a little close to home.)"
Netflix is no longer just a streaming service, they have their own original series. Orange is the new black(12 Emmy nominations) and House of cards(9 Emmy nominations). Great results for such a beginner like Netflix.
Nice to see Netflix having some good result to show us, they definitely deserve it. Just wish they start being available in more countries around the world. List of countries that are not supported by Netflix is still pretty big.
