Netflix Inc. – NFLX.O

This subscription-based video streaming service has come a long way from its genesis as a DVD-shipping platform more than two decades ago. Today, Netflix boasts more than 223 million global paid memberships. In the face of heightened competition and rising content costs, Netflix has also begun to roll out a new, cheaper ($6.99/month) ad-supported tier of its service that should bolster retention and increase memberships.
