Netflix exec explains 2 reasons why the company won't release shows on a weekly schedule

He explained that even in the case of traditional television, most viewers don’t watch shows on a weekly schedule anymore. Instead, they record shows on DVRs and watch them “in multiple episode stacks.” But that’s not all. [Ted Serandos] also said that people’s viewing habits have changed in another key way. Instead of juggling multiple shows at once and watching new episodes each week, people want to dive into one show at a time and binge-watch it until they’re done. - Zach Epstein, BGR [via/web:http://streaming-tv.us]
