LOS ANGELES, Nov 17 — Netflix on Tuesday published its first weekly Top 10 list of the most popular movies and television shows on the streaming service, addressing industry criticism that it has been selective in the information it shares publicly.
Netflix CEO Reed Hastings told investors the change was coming during the company’s third-quarter earnings call on Oct. 19. The streaming service said it will release global Top 10 lists for English-language films and television shows, based on the hours viewed, as well as for non-English language shows and movies every Tuesday. It also will rank its most popular titles in more than 90 countries., which tops the list of non-English language shows, with 42.8 million hours viewed during the week of Nov. 8.
The service’s new measurement approach is consistent with that used by research firm Nielsen to track how Americans spend their screen time. Nielsen’s first report using this new methodology, published in June, suggests plenty of room for growth for Netflix, which accounts for just 6 per cent of US screen-time. — Reuters
