Netflix has had the most massive growth in the last few years and also had the biggest setback in the recent quarter. It lost 200,000 millions subscribers and lost 44% of its stock value. The company was forced to reconsider its approach and make certain changes that it was too proud to make earlier: an ad supported model. Increasing competition from its rival is adding to Netflix&#8217;s misery. Hence, now the streamer has finally decided to wisen up and do what its subscribers had long wanted it to do. 
<h2>Netflix to focus more on quality and less on quantity</h2>
<a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/news">Netflix</a> always prioritized the size of their catalog over quality, which has obviously not worked well for them. Ever since their massive loss, they have adopted cost-cutting measures. As a result, the TV, the family live-action, and the animation divisions have suffered from too many shows getting canceled. Now they are introducing &#8220;subtle changes&#8221;. No more vanity projects and throwing money to attract talent but using the budget to create a quality project.

&#8220;The goal will be to make the best version of something instead of cheapening out for the sake of quantity,” <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/business-news/netflix-movies-knives-out-gray-man-red-notice-1235156868/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said </a>an insider. The streamer released <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/don't-look-up">Don&#8217;t Look Up</a>, <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/red-notice">Red </a>Notice, and <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/the-adam-project">The Adam Project</a> in the last few years.  It hopes to get its mojo back with bid budget releases like <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/ryan-gosling">Ryan Gosling</a> starrer and Russo brothers&#8217; helmed <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/the-gray-man">The Gray Man</a>. A<a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/knives-out"> Knives Out</a> sequel is also in the pipeline for which the company shelled out $469. The platform has also acquired Emily Blunt&#8217;s Pain Hustlers for <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-netflix-cashes-in-50-million-dollars-to-become-first-big-spender-at-the-cannes-film-festival-bags-emily-blunt-package-pain-hustlers/">$50 million</a>.

<h2>Does that mean the streamer will stop making small indie flicks? </h2>
The original independent features division that brought movies like <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/to-all-the-boys-ive-loved-before">To All The Boys I&#8217;ve Loved Before</a>, <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/the-kissing-booth">The Kissing Booth</a> and etc., also suffered a setback due to the layoffs. It was the division that mostly produced movies under a $30 million budget belt and kind of helped in the resurgence of romantic comedy flicks. However, small movies aren&#8217;t going to go anywhere. According to an insider it&#8217;s just going to get a lot more niche.
What do you think of this new approach? Do you think it will work out?
