Netflix is distinctly more popular with younger consumers in the United States than with older generations. According to the findings of a recent survey, around ** percent of respondents aged 18 to 34 subscribed to Netflix as of mid-2021, compared to just ** percent of those aged 65 or above. Netflix predicts further subscriber loss Netflix is the most popular subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) service worldwide. Millions of viewers from various demographics access the platform each day, but despite its availability in over *** countries and its ever-expanding content catalog, Netflix reported a subscriber loss of around *** thousand in the first quarter of 2022. It was the first time in over a decade that the streamer experienced a drop in user numbers, but according to the company, this downward trend might very well continue in the second quarter of the year. According to company reports, Netflix expects to lose an additional * million subscribers by mid-2022. Cracking down on password sharing Credential sharing has become an essential part of the video-on-demand (VOD) experience. Companies can stand out in today’s crowded streaming space by offering viewers to create multiple profiles and split subscription costs with other people in their household – which might be particularly appealing to younger audiences. Netflix is one of the first services to have provided multiple subscription options at various price tiers, but even so, the company has also acknowledged that millions of people share their login data without paying for additional accounts. In 2021, Netflix was estimated to have lost over **** billion U.S. dollars in revenue due to password sharing. In 2022, the company reacted by announcing to charge additional sub-account fees for people streaming content outside the primary account holder’s household.

Netflix continues to dominate the UK streaming landscape, with **** million households subscribing to the service in the second quarter of 2025. This marks a slight increase from **** million subscribers in the first quarter of 2025, demonstrating the platform's enduring popularity despite fierce competition in the video-on-demand landscape. Netflix's competitors While Netflix remains the leading subscription video-on-demand service in the UK in terms of customer numbers, Amazon Prime Video boasts the largest content library among major SVOD platforms, with nearly ****** hours of content available as of May 2024. However, when it comes to market share based on user interest, Netflix still holds the top spot, edging out providers such as Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, and Apple TV+. Demographic preferences Interestingly, streaming preferences vary across age groups. Among viewers aged 65 and above, Amazon Prime Video is the preferred choice in the UK for ** percent, while Netflix captures one-third of this demographic. This contrasts with the overall market dominance of Netflix, suggesting that older audiences may have different content preferences.

Netflix's global subscriber base has reached an impressive milestone, surpassing *** million paid subscribers worldwide in the fourth quarter of 2024. This marks a significant increase of nearly ** million subscribers compared to the previous quarter, solidifying Netflix's position as a dominant force in the streaming industry. Adapting to customer losses Netflix's growth has not always been consistent. During the first half of 2022, the streaming giant lost over *** million customers. In response to these losses, Netflix introduced an ad-supported tier in November of that same year. This strategic move has paid off, with the lower-cost plan attracting ** million monthly active users globally by November 2024, demonstrating Netflix's ability to adapt to changing market conditions and consumer preferences. Global expansion Netflix continues to focus on international markets, with a forecast suggesting that the Asia Pacific region is expected to see the most substantial growth in the upcoming years, potentially reaching around **** million subscribers by 2029. To correspond to the needs of the non-American target group, the company has heavily invested in international content in recent years, with Korean, Spanish, and Japanese being the most watched non-English content languages on the platform.

In an era dominated by streaming services, Netflix stands as one of the undisputed giants in the world of entertainment.

Methodology Every Tuesday, we publish four global Top 10 lists for films and TV: Film (English), TV (English), Film (Non-English), and TV (Non-English). These lists rank titles based on ‘views’ for each title from Monday to Sunday of the previous week. We define views for a title as the total hours viewed divided by the total runtime. Values are rounded to 100,000.

We consider each season of a series and each film on their own, so you might see both Stranger Things seasons 2 and 3 in the Top 10. Because titles sometimes move in and out of the Top 10, we also show the total number of weeks that a season of a series or film has spent on the list.

To give you a sense of what people are watching around the world, we also publish Top 10 lists for nearly 100 countries and territories (the same locations where there are Top 10 rows on Netflix). Country lists are also ranked by views.

Finally, we provide a list of the Top 10 most popular Netflix films and TV overall (branded Netflix in any country) in each of the four categories based on the views of each title in its first 91 days.

Some TV shows have multiple premiere dates, whether weekly or in parts, and therefore the runtime increases over time. For the weekly lists, we show the views based on the total hours viewed during the week divided by the total runtime available at the end of the week. On the Most Popular List, we wait until all episodes have premiered, so you see the views of the entire season. For titles that are Netflix branded in some countries but not others, we still include all of the hours viewed.

Information on the site starts from June 28, 2021 and any lists published before June 20, 2023 are ranked by hours viewed.

Dataset Description
The Netflix Life Impact Dataset (NLID) is a meticulously curated collection of 80+ transformative films, designed to uncover how cinematic experiences leave lasting emotional, intellectual, and behavioral imprints on audiences. Each entry provides:

Basic Attributes: Title, genre, release year, average rating, and review volume.
Transformative Insights: A precise timestamp for the “Minute of Life-Changing Insight” and the actionable advice viewers derived from it.
Audience Engagement: Discovery channels (e.g., friend recommendations, social media), the percentage of viewers who shared the film’s lesson, and qualitative review highlights.

This dataset transcends traditional movie analytics by spotlighting the human impact of storytelling—how scenes spark introspection, alter perspectives, or inspire action. It bridges cinema studies, psychology, and data science, making it invaluable for understanding art’s role in shaping human behavior.

Context and Inspiration
As a data scientist and lifelong film enthusiast, I noticed a critical gap: most movie datasets focus on box office metrics or superficial ratings, ignoring why certain stories resonate deeply. This project began with a simple question: What makes a film unforgettable?

💡 Did a scene ever redefine your worldview? That fleeting moment when a character’s struggle mirrors your own, or a line of dialogue becomes a mantra—this dataset captures those universal yet deeply personal catalysts for change.

I spent months analyzing thousands of reviews, cross-referencing critical essays, and identifying recurring themes in viewer testimonials. From Oscar-winning dramas to cult classics, every entry reflects rigorous validation to ensure authenticity and relevance.

Sources and Methodology
Accuracy is paramount. Data was manually aggregated and verified using:
- Streaming Platforms: Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Hulu for ratings, discovery trends, and audience demographics.
- Audience Feedback: IMDb, Reddit, and Letterboxd reviews to pinpoint pivotal scenes and extract life lessons.
- Critical Analyses: Academic journals and film critiques to validate the cultural significance of highlighted moments.

Every “life-changing minute” and its associated advice underwent cross-validation against multiple sources to ensure universality. For example, Parasite’s flood scene (1:12:00) was flagged by 85% of reviewers as a commentary on invisible privilege.

Key Features
1. Emotional Metrics:
- Life-Changing Timestamp: Exact minute marking the film’s transformative moment (e.g., Whiplash’s drumming finale at 1:20:00).
- Meaningful Advice: Concise takeaways viewers adopted (e.g., Coco’s “Honor your roots”).

2. Audience Behavior:
- Discovery Channels: How viewers found the film (e.g., 92% of The Pursuit of Happyness viewers were referred by friends).
- Shareability: Percentage of viewers who recommended the film’s lesson (e.g., 97% for Klaus).

3. Rigorous Curation:
- Each entry synthesizes quantitative metrics (ratings, reviews) with qualitative depth (review highlights, psychological impact).

Potential Use Cases
✅ Storytelling Analysis: Identify which genres (e.g., documentaries like The Social Dilemma) or themes (e.g., resilience, systemic injustice) most influence audiences.
✅ Personalized Recommendations: Build systems that suggest films based on life lessons (e.g., “Persistence pays off” for motivational content).
✅ Cultural Psychology: Study how societal issues (e.g., class inequality in Parasite) shape collective emotional responses.
✅ Content Creation: Guide filmmakers in crafting impactful scenes by analyzing timestamp patterns.

Why This Dataset Stands Out
1. Dual Lens: Combines hard metrics (e.g., 92% Y recommendation rate for Paddington 2) with human-centric insights (e.g., “Always choose kindness”).
2. Cross-Disciplinary Utility: Appeals to data scientists, psychologists, filmmakers, and educators.
3. Passion-Driven Precision: Every entry reflects hours of manual review, ensuring depth and credibility.

Summary
The Netflix Life Impact Dataset (NLID) isn’t just about movies—it’s about the moments that redefine us. Whether you’re training an AI to predict cultural trends, studying the psychology of art, or seeking films that challenge your worldview, this dataset illuminates the invisible threads between storytelling and human transformation. Lights, camera, impact. 🎬

Streaming Media Player Market Outlook

According to our latest research, the global streaming media player market size reached USD 19.4 billion in 2024, demonstrating robust demand due to the rapid proliferation of high-speed internet and the surging popularity of over-the-top (OTT) streaming services worldwide. The market is projected to expand at a CAGR of 8.2% during the forecast period from 2025 to 2033, reaching an estimated value of USD 39.2 billion by 2033. Key growth drivers include the increasing adoption of smart TVs, the evolution of content delivery networks, and the rising consumer preference for on-demand entertainment experiences. As per our latest research, the market continues to witness dynamic growth, fueled by technological advancements and shifting consumer media consumption habits.

One of the primary growth factors for the streaming media player market is the widespread availability and affordability of high-speed internet connectivity. The global rollout of 5G networks and the expansion of fiber-optic broadband infrastructure have significantly improved streaming quality, reduced buffering, and enabled seamless access to high-definition and 4K content. This has encouraged consumers to shift from traditional cable and satellite TV to streaming platforms, thereby boosting the demand for streaming media players. Furthermore, the proliferation of affordable and feature-rich smart TVs and dongles has made it easier for users across various income groups to embrace streaming as their primary source of entertainment, further expanding the market’s reach.

Another significant driver is the continuous innovation by streaming media player manufacturers and content providers. Companies are integrating advanced features such as voice assistants, AI-powered recommendation engines, and multi-device synchronization to enhance user experience. The integration of streaming media players with smart home ecosystems and IoT devices is also gaining traction, offering consumers a seamless and interactive entertainment experience. Additionally, the growing library of exclusive and original content on OTT platforms is compelling users to upgrade their streaming devices to access the latest offerings in high quality, thereby fueling recurring demand for new and upgraded media players.

The increasing trend of cord-cutting, especially among younger demographics, is reshaping the global media and entertainment landscape. Consumers are seeking flexible, cost-effective alternatives to traditional pay-TV, leading to a surge in subscriptions to streaming services. This shift is supported by the rapid expansion of global OTT platforms like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, and regional players, which are investing heavily in diverse content libraries. The rising penetration of smartphones and tablets, coupled with the growing popularity of live streaming events such as sports, concerts, and e-sports, is further accelerating the adoption of streaming media players across both residential and commercial segments.

From a regional perspective, North America continues to dominate the streaming media player market owing to its mature digital infrastructure, high disposable incomes, and the presence of leading OTT service providers and device manufacturers.
