Frequently, though, the logo is changed in the absence of a thoughtful shift in strategy. Perhaps the new leadership wants to put their stamp on the company. Perhaps the logo now looks dated. Whatever the reason, it can be a waste of time and resources. And it can actually negatively impact the value of a brand as a whole.

Recently, and with no company fanfare, Netflix changed its logo. The logo that had represented the company for over 14 years was out, and a new one was in. At first blush, it may seem odd. The old Netflix logo was highly recognizable and everywhere.

The old logo had overseen the growth of a small, United States only DVD service that had transformed into a global streaming brand. It represented where they had been, but not where they were going. While Netflix did incorporate the arch in the lettermark and signature red into the new logo, the shift is intended as a clear signal to consumers that this is a new Netflix. One of the reasons there was very little chatter about the new logo is that there was sound reasoning behind the change.

Refining a logo to make it less dated makes sense from time-to-time. But wholesale swap out of a logo in attempt to "change things up" can cash out large amounts of brand equity, distract from the core mission, demoralized staff and negatively impact the brand and business. Before changing the logo it is wise to ask what is that change really going to signal to the consumer. A significant shift in strategy or just a confusing change for seemingly no reason?

I am using my iphone to control Netflix on my apple tv because my apple remote is broken. I used to hold the middle button to change the language and subtitles but this function does not seem to be available on the iphone app (control centre)

You couldn't be more wrong on this, T-Mobile can keep giving it customers what they promised them when they signed up. They'll just have to eat the cost or make a new deal with Netflix. The benefit equates to $15.49 of value for the current one, now it's going to equate to $6.99, how is that not a Downgrade? I to, will be looking at other carriers and plans.

This is unfortunate but I would probably do the same if I was T-Mobile. It will increase profit margins and force people to pay more to get back into the higher tier they were in with Netflix. Although I am not happy about it, it's actually good teamwork between the companies. Personally, I may downgrade my plan and even consider other carriers. In the end I will probably have to choose to either ditch Netflix completely in the very unlikely instance that it reduces plan cost or pay the difference to avoid ads. However, I doubt that T-Mobile will allow the option of my plan without the Netflix with ads for a reduced cost. Let's not pretend that anything is really free. There would be no agreement between T-Mobile and Netflix if it wasn't mutually beneficial and you pay for it even if it isn't shown as a line item.

I'm sorry but if people realized it's actually costing you more do you have T-Mobile on us for Netflix or even Paramount then they wouldn't use those benefits. Because I was grandfathered in under a plan that they no longer have anymore and it was cheaper for me to pay out of pocket for Paramount and Netflix and tell my kids wanted smart watches so then I had to upgrade my plan to the magenta which almost doubled my phone bill so now I'm paying almost $400 a month instead of $150 because of the change in the plans and the additional lines for the smart watches. But also with that we get unlimited data which is the best benefit that is if it would actually work all the time. And also every time I went into upgrade my phones they totally screwed up my account so bad it took me months to get it fixed so when I do decide to upgrade phones again I will be switching from T-Mobile and I've been with them for 13 years. I thought the whole thing would be coming 5G was things worth just get better and possibly a little cheaper but it's only gotten worse and more expensive.

I called in for the third time about this change and asked for a Supervisor to discuss it. I finally got through to a Supervisor, who looked up my account and she said that as I am on the Magenta Max 55+ with 3 lines, my Netflix service is grandfathered in and will not be changed to the one with ads. I asked her to confirm and she put me on hold, came back a couple minutes later and confirmed no change to my Netflix. As this is different from what I was told the last 2 times I called, I supposed I will see what happens over the next day or two when the change is taking place.

Hi! I have recently purchased this magnificent grand OLED TV and have been enjoying for the past 2 weeks. When watching Netflix (mainly) I noticed from time to time the colour changes to what looks like Sepia-ish or tri-tone colours. I had no idea what to do at first and definitely certain it is not a Netflix setting issue.

I found that all I had to do was to just to exit the "Action Menu > Picture" menu by clicking "Back". A few seconds later, it will switch back to normal colours. I have not done any changes to anything doing this. Really strange!

In addition to other people's comments I can add that mine does it when flicking between CGI imagary and none CGI. But it happened for the last 20 minutes of Avengers Infinity War. And has continued for Endgame. Watching on Disney+

So I may actually have a solution to this even though it only happened yesterday. Poor internet! I double checked and for 4k/IMAX Enhanced stuff a speed of 50+Meg is recommended. Are all of you using WiFi? Or hardwired? What's your broadband speed?

This is a bug in the TV software that Sony can't be bothered to fix. Has been happening to me for about a year now. The only thing that fixes it is a hard reset. Some of the ideas posted here like clearing caches and resetting to factory settings are obviously nonsense and infuriating. Sony need to fix it and nonsense suggestions are just a distraction from that fact. There is a bug in the TV (or Android OS) handling of dolby vision colour profiles (and the way they interact with apps) that Sony just need to own up to and fix.

I am experiencing a similar issue that may or may not be the same problem. After a perdiod of inactivitty, the audio and subtitles will change back to the original. It could be a memory saving feature in Chrome that resets the app, and a fix could be to just set a cookie to remember the current state.

I had the same error when I was using the extension for Swedish 2 or 3 years ago. Still have the same issue now with Spanish
Both audio and subtitles change to English even though I made my Netflix account to be in Spanish and have Spanish as default.

When Netflix launched, Blockbuster (a global chain of video stores where customers could go and rent videos in store) was their biggest competitor. It took Blockbuster years to start offering a similar service as Netflix was already doing. By the time they finally shifted to a subscription service, Netflix already had started the process of shifting their customers to streaming subscribers and was quitting the DVD rental business.

One of the most important reasons that Netflix became an exponential business model is that the founders had the ability to look as an outsider at their business model. They were never happy with the way the business model was at a given time but were always looking where the market was headed in 5 to 10 years. They combined several building blocks for exponential growth by always looking for new ways to solve problems for many customers, to do this with digitalized services (an info based offering) by using a lean approach.


For example, Netflix accepted already in 2007 that the DVD rental business was not profitable enough anymore. They understood that people not only want to rent videos but also want to pay for a large and user-friendly offering, for the comfort of ordering a video from your couch and for no hassle with returning videos. They foresaw the change, used their IT-background to create fitting digital solutions and rolled it out in a lean way.


Also, apart from being one of the pioneers of the industry with their subscription model, the value proposition is yet another element which helped this particular service to become as popular as it is today. In fact, there are a total of four elements that are making all the difference.

The seventh building block of creating an exponential business, Algorithm to the core, is one that Netflix has played out perfectly. Netflix started with a basic rating system, based on Big Data and completely based on how good or bad a particular movie or show had been rated. These ratings were based on number of views, customer feedback, if videos were watched until the end and even IMDB ratings.
