Design Netflix

Netflix is a streaming service offering a wide array of TV shows, movies, anime, documentaries, and more on thousands of internet-connected devices. Unlike YouTube, which primarily hosts user-generated content, Netflix focuses on delivering professionally produced film and television content, providing users with access to a vast library of titles without the need to watch a single commercial.
