Netflix’s leadership, however, crosses borders. Already at the end of 2020, this platform had more than 200 million users. In the last quarter of that year alone, it added almost eight million new subscribers. In this sense, the COVID-19 pandemic favored the growth of the streaming giant. Due to the confinement adopted in most of the countries, the consumption of audiovisual content through the Internet increased by more than 50%. A phenomenon that, without a doubt, Netflix also took advantage of.

Netflix currently has more than 5,500 viewing options in Spain between series, films and documentaries. It even brings together its own content that, in many cases, has had a brutal impact. Some national series such as La Casa de Papel have expanded to more than 160 countries around the world.
