Exactly what I meant, option for both.
We should all realize that some content is classic and needs to be monetized appropriately. Paramount won't give Netflix the 'The Godfather' because there's still money in it, especially when it's remastered 4K.
Using 'Stranger Things' from Netflix as an example, that show didn't get picked up by any of the networks and Netflix sort of had nothing to lose by picking the show up. Now that it's a hit, it just gives Netflix users more reasons to keep their subscription alive. Netflix has many shows like this and subscribers respect the content.
At some point, I can see UltraFlix doing the same....especially with the new formats. It gives opportunity to new film makers to reach an audience without a network deal.
