Netflix Has No Plans To Offer Live Sports, VP Says

Netflix VP of Business Development for EMEA Maria Ferreras said that the company "has no plans" to offer live sports, according to Chris Dziadul of BROADBAND TV NEWS. She added that there would be "nothing that we could do differently from a broadcaster." However, the streaming service "has been exploring sports from a documentary perspective." Netflix has also been looking at different genres, such as talk shows in the U.S., but "as these have been on a local level not everyone has been aware of it." Although Netflix is developing int'l studios in Madrid, it has "no plans to buy any production companies" (BROADBAND TV NEWS, 9/14).
