Not content to rely on others for content
There is a new competitor for HBO and Showtime in the television landscape — and, for the first time, it is not a television network.
Netflix, the popular online film service, said on Friday that it had licensed the exclusive rights to “House of Cards,” a show that is to be directed by David Fincher, the director of “The Social Network,” and to star Kevin Spacey.
The deal immediately makes Netflix a player in premium television programming.
