An interview with Netflix co-founder Marc Randolph, about the early days of the company that would kick-start the streaming TV revolution.
If you drilled down to the individual account level, you’d find that one of the many Netflix accounts that watched the movie in recent days belongs to Marc Randolph, the man who co-founded the streaming service with its current co-CEO Reed Hastings.was the most recent title he’d checked out on the platform, it wasn’t hard at all to imagine why a businessman would enjoy the film.
If Netflix can be said to have a beginning, it was right here during the free-flowing conversations between Randolph and Hastings. As they talked, they cruised along Highway 17 — with time on their hands and nothing but the California sun and streaming dominance ahead of them.The two men were in this position in the first place, in that car at that moment in 1997, because they were, in fact, both about to be jobless.
When it showed up in the mail, intact, to Hasting’s home, that was all the convincing they needed that this DVD-by-mail rental idea had legs. For one thing, Randolph told me, “what I learned is that success is proportionate to how many ideas you try.”
