When a CEO is asked to dream we shouldn’t be surprised when he dreams big. In an Reuters interview with Netflix CEO, Reed Hastings, we learn that Netflix is working in parallel to bring its services to “all the game consoles, all the Blu-ray players, all the Internet TVs.” Naturally, he added that the Xbox deal is exclusive for the time being. The company is currently focused on the big screen but “will get to mobile eventually, including the iPhone.” And while the streaming business is “booming,” he says the DVD business is still growing as well, likely peaking in “5 years or so” with people still doing DVD-by-mail over the next 20 years. Reed then adjusted his monocle and disappeared in a flash of cigar and brick-and-mortar ash.
