One major form of media that has been important for a long time are of course movies. However recently, one different form of media has been how we as viewers receive and watch these films. For a time in my life the top way of watching a movie was either seeing it in a theatre or renting it from a place like Blockbuster. This all changed in 1997 when Marc Randolph and Mitch Lowe created Netflix.
This changed the way we see people movies. On Netflix you can go online and pick a movie, and then have it delivered to your house the next day. It was later developed that you could stream a movie through a gaming device such as an XBOX 360 or your computer. Rental places are now starting to decline as Netflix rises. It is easy to see that a new generation of movie watching has developed!
