Netflix in Mexico

                 I have been researching facts about Netflix coming to Mexico, since September. Many things have happened since then. Netflix opened in Mexico and some other Central American countries, on September 12, 2011. The people in Mexico can only watch the movies on the internet. Netflix expected that it would be profitable in two years, but right now it is going to cost money. It costs about $7.99 a month for users in Mexico, but the price is going up.
                I think that this was a great idea. We have access to many movies and television shows, here in the U.S.A. It is great because now people in Mexico have access to it too. The article said that they wouldn’t have as many choices as we do, but they would eventually. Having Netflix in Mexico also connects us to them. We are now able to watch the same things and to share our cultures easier. I can watch a TV show in Spanish and someone from Mexico could watch a TV show in English to learn about our culture and I could learn about theirs. I hope that this idea was worth the investment from Netflix otherwise it may backfire on them.  I think that it will all work out in the end.
