Netflix Data Transparency and Impact

Netflix's engagement report provides a detailed overview of viewing statistics for films and TV shows, though its limited scope presents challenges for comprehensive analysis. The report includes significant viewership figures, such as the high view counts for British shows and popular animated films like Super Mario Brothers. While Netflix claims its data transparency is a goodwill gesture, it also represents strategic business interests aimed at reducing costs for talent compensation. By releasing this data, Netflix positions itself as a market leader, potentially minimizing the negotiating power of actors and creators based on viewership performance.
