Despite investing over $20 billion in original content, the streaming service has struggled to attract a significant audience, garnering only 0.2% of U.S. TV viewership compared to Netflix's 8%.The podcast explores the reasons behind these cost-saving measures, including Apple's heavy investments in high-cost productions like Martin Scorsese and Ridley Scott's films and the WWII series "Masters of the Air." While some projects like "Ted Lasso" have found success, many others have underperformed.Analytic Dreamz analyzes Apple's strategic shift, including reduced upfront payments for new shows, quicker cancellations, delayed productions, and partnerships with studios to share financial risks. The second season of "Severance," with its soaring production costs of over $20 million per episode, serves as a prime example of Apple's need to tighten its budget.The podcast also compares Apple TV+'s performance to other streaming services, highlighting its lack of top 10 shows compared to even smaller competitors like Paramount+. Netflix's success with licensing older shows, such as Seinfeld, emphasizes the importance of a robust content library, which Apple currently lacks.Finally, Analytic Dreamz discusses the broader industry trend of cost-cutting, with major studios like Disney and Paramount also facing mounting losses. Join us as we explore the implications of Apple TV+'s budget crunch and its potential impact on the future of streaming.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
