So, I'm confused about what we are going to cover here: streaming-only Netflix, or Netflix and Qwikster. I've finished the 5th question (strategies) and I focus more on why Netflix decided to split rental and streaming, and more to Netflix only;not Qwikster. If you guys could review what I've wrote, it would be great. thanks.

My strategic map covered both the streaming and DVD option. I need to read the case to figure this out.

According to an article today, Netflix is abandoning Qwikster and is sticking with Netflix for both streaming and DVD. You should be fine. Check it out below.

Sorry, I sent out the wrong link about Netflix abandoning Qwikster. Use this one.

You may need to adjust the strategies you talked about Richard.

The case is on netflix but inevitably we'll talk about qwikster. Especially since its the "whats happening now" element of the case so I think you are find covering both.

Yeah but Netflix isn't using Qwikster as a strategy anymore. They abandoned it. Oh well. I'm sure it won't matter anyway.

oh yeah I see what you're saying, well maybe just say what their strategy was with that, but then why they are abandoning it.
