What’s Coming to Netflix in January 2022?

Streaming has been on the rise for the past few years. The trend, which started back in 2010, is showing no sign of slowing down anytime soon, and the pandemic, which started back in 2020, has only helped add more fuel to this fire. There are substantial reasons behind such a rapid increase in streaming, and the most crucial one is the cost. People are struggling financially to make ends meet as many have lost their jobs due to the pandemic. World economies are going through a major recession, and in times like these, services like cable TV are becoming difficult to afford. Most people already have internet and there are grants from the government like EBB that allow people to remain connected to services like the internet. So, it doesn’t make sense for people to pay extra for a service that they can already get over the internet. What’s Coming to Netflix in January 2022?

Now, the invention of the modern form of TV i.e. smart TV has also helped pave the way for streaming. With smartphone-like options including Wi-Fi and the ability to directly install streaming apps, smart TVs allow users to enjoy streaming content on their big screens. This is something that wasn’t possible in the past and people were forced to watch streaming content on their phones. Plus, streaming apps also provide a sense of ease and convenience to users so they can watch their favorite content anytime and anywhere without any interruptions. In the wake of this streaming trend, most big cable TV services like RCN cable have launched their own streaming apps that users get free of cost with every package. Cable TV is a technology that is way past its prime and just like with all other technologies, it’s bound to be replaced with something better, and that better is streaming.

Dawn of Netflix

Cost-effectiveness, ease of use, and a vast library of content are the reasons we have witnessed a drastic increase in the usage of these streaming apps, and Netflix is the one that tops all these charts. Netflix is considered the king of streaming apps and it’s also the one that started this trend in the first place. With 214 million active users, it’s way ahead in terms of subscribers in contrast to any of its competitors. One thing to note is that these 214 million users are the number of active accounts of Netflix and typically one account is shared between 3 to 4 users, so doing the math, it is not difficult to understand that how popular Netflix has become among the masses. This is because of a plethora of content that includes classic movies and shows mixed with Netflix’s original content, including movies with famous movie stars and innovative shows that have already become cult classics.
