Editorial

The King is dead, or are they? Indeed, the Google Finance chart seems to imply that Netflix is in horrible shape. From a 52-week high of almost $700, its stock sits at $218.22 as Thursday, 21st April.

At the same time, Apple TV+ seems to be growing into a powerful service. Friday Baseball has recently been added to the service that won the Oscar for best picture. Rumors abound that Sunday Ticket football will come soon. And HBO Max is also prospering. Meanwhile, CNN+ is closing down.
