NFLX

Netflix, Inc.

A global streaming entertainment service offering TV series, films, games, and live programming through monthly memberships. Founded in 1997 by Reed Hastings and Marc Randolph in Scotts Valley, California, it began as a DVD-by-mail rental business before growing into one of the world's largest streaming platforms. The name came from a brainstorm mixing words for "internet" and "movies" — net and flix.
