Netflix now available in Hong Kong and almost everywhere else - except mainland China

Streaming pioneer Netflix has announced it has significantly expanded its global footprint to 190 countries and territories, making its Internet TV service available in 130 new markets including Hong Kong - but not mainland China.

California-based Netflix, which began as a mail-order DVD service but is now producing award-winning original content alongside its offering of older shows and movies, launched in 2007. Now, 70 million subscribers pay a monthly fee for unlimited service.

“Today you are witnessing the birth of a new global Internet TV network,” cofounder and chief executive Reed Hastings announced at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.

“With this launch, consumers around the world - from Singapore to St Petersburg, from San Francisco to Sao Paulo - will be able to enjoy TV shows and movies simultaneously - no more waiting.

“While you have been listening to me talk, the Netflix service has gone live in nearly every country in the world except China, where we hope to be in the future.”

Netflix noted in a statement that it “continues to explore options for providing the service” in China, the world’s most populous country, where the government censors online content it deems to be politically sensitive.

Netflix had previously announced that it would become available in Hong Kong in early 2016.

Netflix is keen to get the streaming service to China's population, but needs special permission from the government there and expects the process is “going to take time,” Hastings said during a press briefing at CES.

Other countries or markets without the service are Crimea, North Korea and Syria due to US government restrictions on American companies, Netflix said.

How it will work in Hong Kong

Netflix provides three plans in Hong Kong with monthly fees of HK$63, HK$78, and $93 respectively, under which all users can enjoy unlimited movies and TV shows on laptop, TV, phone and tablet.

It is expected that Netflix will team up with HKBN, a fixed line broadband network service provider, for the Hong Kong services. HKBN has already teamed up with Netflix rival, Beijing-based LeTV, for distributing LeTV’s content including English Premier League football games.

Netflix’s cheapest plan in Hong Kong doesn’t provide HD display and will only allow users to watch on a single screen at any one time, while users under the standard plan can enjoy HD display with two screens turned on at the same time with a monthly cost of HK$78.

Ultra HD display and four screens would only be offered under the premium plan, costing HK$93 per month.

Shortly after Netflix launched its Hong Kong service, tech-savvy netizens in the city were already sharing tips of how to choose among the three plans.

“If you are single and only use smart phones [to watch movies]… the cheapest one would satisfy you,” said one netizen on local technology website unwire.hk.

“If you have large families or own a 4K resolution TV device (which provides UltraHD display), you can consider premium plan.”

The post also indicated internet speed is a consideration for people choosing a plan from Netflix as resolution would be lowered if the speed is too slow.

Netflix expands its global reach

While English is the main language for most of the new markets, Netflix said it has added support for Arabic and Korean, along with simplified and traditional Chinese to the 17 languages it now uses.

“From today onwards, we will listen and we will learn, gradually adding more languages, more content and more ways for people to engage with Netflix,” said Hastings.

“We're looking forward to bringing great stories from all over the world to people all over the world.”

Following its US launch, Netflix first expanded to Canada, and then to Latin America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Japan. Until Wednesday, it was available in 60 countries.

The company has been shifting from recycling old shows and movies to producing more original content, with its shows such as the award-winning House of Cards and Orange Is the New Black.

However, availability of original content could differ from country to country due to local licensing deals.

“We want citizens around the world to have access to the same content,” Hastings said, noting it may take several years to get to a point where Netflix content is consistent worldwide.

It remained to be seen whether Netflix would have to serve up edited versions of some shows or films to suit cultural sensitivities in some countries.

“The thrust of what we are trying to do is have the artistic vision be consistent around the world,” Hastings said.

With Netflix now available nearly everywhere in the world, the company’s focus for the coming decade will be on providing stellar content.

Hastings playfully compared the big launch with having a baby, saying. “It's a big deal, but the real work is the next 20 years.”

In 2016, the company plans to release 31 new and returning original series, two dozen original feature films and documentaries, as well as its own stand-up comedy specials and 30 original children’s programs.

“Our teams are not going to be focused on doing launches, which are wildly disruptive,” said Netflix head of content acquisition Ted Sarandos.

“Now we can be fully focused on finding the best content for the world.”

The global reach also means that Netflix should be tapping into more local talent for original productions from various parts of the world. Hastings and Sarandos were confident that people around the world are hungry for on-demand films and shows.

“We are just throwing out the old paradigm; everything is gone,” said actor Will Arnett, who will star in an upcoming Netflix comedy series titled “Flaked.”

“Everything you do is available everywhere around the world at the same time, it is amazing.”

Netflix is ahead of key rivals in streaming such as Amazon and Hulu, which have also begun to produce original content.

The rapid expansion is likely to impact the bottom line at Netflix. In its most recent quarterly update, the company said that it expects “to run around break-even through 2016 and to deliver material profits thereafter.”
