I’m delighted to see an agreement reached so that the MLB season can start. But we must prevent the greed of baseball’s oligarchs from destroying the game. The best way to do that is to end MLB’s antitrust exemption and I will be introducing legislation to do just that. pic.twitter.com/qkRreVTJFP

Quotable
“I’d say we’re still kind of searching a little bit for what normal is exactly going to look like post-COVID. We’re still working our way through that. But I would say I think there’s probably overly focused attention on subscriber numbers. What we focus on is building a great business—we’re focused on growing revenue, growing profits, growing cash flow. And that’s about driving not just membership, but driving engagement, increasing engagement, and, obviously, increasing member value pricing occasionally into that value that we create. For us, it’s the combination of those things, as opposed to a year-to-year or quarter-to-quarter member number.” – Netflix CFO Spencer Neumann during an appearance at the 2022 Morgan Stanley Technology, Media & Telecom Conference
