Our value proposition to consumers is so much more about completeness than freshness. Having the complete season is so much more valuable, in our business model, than having last night's episode.

The major international appeal for 'House of Cards' was kind of a surprise because it's a very American show. What we learned is that American politics is very American, but greed and corruption and all of that is very global.

'Orange Is the New Black' was by far the most watched show in both France and Germany and, in fact, all of the markets that we launched.

'Marco Polo' had some negative reactions in the press. Viewers have loved it, and the volume of viewing has been phenomenal.

In the first week of release, 'Beasts Of No Nation' was the most watched movie on Netflix, in every country we operate in.

Networks can typically invest tens of millions of dollars in the development of a pilot. And if they put the show on the air and it fails, that's all lost money. There's no monetization of a broken series.

What we are going to do is continue to grow our content spend on original programming, both in absolute numbers and as a percentage of our total spending, because it's been working. It's been helping grow the brand; and more importantly, it's been driving viewing hours relative to how else we would spend the money.

The Disney deal for us, we are very excited to be their Pay 1 partner, where we are a big licensing partner of Disney all over the world in all different windows.

The real great news is, in the piracy capitals of the world, Netflix is winning. We are pushing down piracy in those markets by getting the access.

I don't know that on-demand sports is remarkably better than live sports.
