HOW IS MYFLIX DIFFERENT?
While there are dozens of streaming sites for specific genres of films or studio-specific content, there are very few sites offering a broad range of title selections… and the majority of these established portals concentrate on offering only the major studio hits.
While Myflix does anticipate offering some mainstream and specialty programming from major studio suppliers and television networks, the vast majority of Myflix titles will be INDEPENDENTLY PRODUCED FILMS . According to industry research published in The-Numbers.com, in 2016 the U.S. Major Studios released a total of ninety-nine (99) films to theatres in North America, while the indie studios released 644 films to North American theatres. This ratio of six-times greater volume of films from independent sources as compared to the major studios has continued to this day - yet, the three most popular current streaming services continue to fight over the handful of major studio titles available each year.
In addition to theatrically released independent films, on average an additional 1,500 indie films are produced in North America each year which either end up as “straight-to-video” or which receive no distribution at all.
MyFlix understands the "low-hanging fruit" concept of the existing streaming sites in competing for the same 99 major studio titles. After all, these major studio films tend to be the biggest box office hits each year. But in concentrating on hit titles which many consumers already viewed at theatres, the handful of existing streaming sites are functionally abandoning the much larger universe of independently produced and distributed features. Film aficionados that consume a lot of product through theatres, video and streaming can easily burn-out on the limited offerings available on Netflix, Hulu, Crackle and I-Tunes… and often migrate to Amazon for the wider selection of titles that Amazon offers on a transactional (per-viewing) basis (or to a lesser level, through Amazon Prime subscriptions). But even Amazon imposes substantial programming barriers for indie producers… leaving over 1,200 newly produced films each year without a legitimate “streaming home” portal.
