So Nigerian film makers get to have another means of distribution while Netflix has a more diverse array of content for its global audience.

Thanks David for the insight.

This is premium content. I like the depth.

Now, about Netflix's entry, I think it is very good for the movie industry. Of course, those whose content gets picked up by Netflix will benefit more. However, the industry as a whole should reap form exposure to a greater international audience. Other small independent producers should enjoy more patronage as Nigerians pick up the habit of going online for everything including movies. But I wonder how long we will Netflix and Chill considering the government's repressive policies. Last week we heard that IrokoTV will start divesting its Nigerian concerns.

Very insightful piece on the future of content. Still a bet by Netflix's team. However i reckon that if a similar/greater level of acceptance given to Afrobeats is achieved with movies in other climes, then it might be a winning strategy.
