Desperate to stem losses from streaming and pay down billions in debt, media companies including Warner Bros. Discovery are raising prices. That’s in part because they’ve been focused almost exclusively on their content libraries. Instead, they must rethink what consumers need in the streaming era.

That’s the lesson of Netflix and Hulu. Both benefit from a broad mix of licensed and original content, plus innovative user interfaces that help users discover TV shows and movies, in part through personalized recommendations.

A Tale of Two Moats
The disparity between Netflix and Hulu and the others reflects two different moats in streaming. The first is the storytelling expertise and libraries of studios such as Disney, Warner Bros., Universal Studios, Sony Pictures Entertainment and Lionsgate. Let’s call it “The Storytelling Moat.”

The second moat is the technological expertise behind the algorithms for personalized recommendations, the dynamic user interfaces and operational back-ends for content distribution over the internet. That is what Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime and YouTube offer consumers. Let’s call it “The Distribution Moat.”
Karim said the inspiration for YouTube first came from the Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime show controversy, when Janet Jackson's breast was briefly exposed by Justin Timberlake during the halftime show. Karim could not easily find video clips of the incident and the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami online, which led to the idea of a video-sharing site.[17] Hurley and Chen said that the original idea for YouTube was a video version of an online dating service and had been influenced by the website Hot or Not.[16][18] They created posts on Craigslist asking attractive women to upload videos of themselves to YouTube in exchange for a $100 reward.[19] Difficulty in finding enough dating videos led to a change of plans, with the site's founders deciding to accept uploads of any video.[20]

YouTube was not the first video-sharing site on the Internet; Vimeo was launched in November 2004, though that site remained a side project of its developers from CollegeHumor at the time and did not grow much, either.[31] The week of YouTube's launch, NBC-Universal's Saturday Night Live ran a skit "Lazy Sunday" by The Lonely Island. Besides helping to bolster ratings and long-term viewership for Saturday Night Live, "Lazy Sunday"'s status as an early viral video helped establish YouTube as an important website.[32] Unofficial uploads of the skit to YouTube drew in more than five million collective views by February 2006 before they were removed when NBCUniversal requested it two months later based on copyright concerns.[33] Despite eventually being taken down, these duplicate uploads of the skit helped popularize YouTube's reach and led to the upload of more third-party content.[34][35] The site grew rapidly; in July 2006, the company announced that more than 65,000 new videos were being uploaded every day and that the site was receiving 100 million video views per day.[36]
