Netflix’s digital disruption in the entertainment industry has been significantly enhanced by digital nudging, which refers to using behavioural science techniques to subtly influence user decisions (Thaler and Sunstein, 2008). By leveraging data analytics, Netflix personalises the viewing experience, guiding users toward content they are likely to enjoy, which increases engagement and encourages binge-watching. The platform employs sophisticated algorithms to recommend titles, effectively nudging viewers to explore new genres or original content based on their viewing history (Lobato, 2019). This strategy has been pivotal in fostering a binge-watching culture, contrasting sharply with traditional broadcasting schedules offering weekly instalments. Netflix’s ability to analyse user data allows it to create content that aligns with viewer preferences, further enhancing its appeal. By understanding what resonates with audiences, Netflix can produce targeted original content that captures attention and retains subscribers. Digital nudging plays a crucial role in Netflix’s strategy, reinforcing its position as a leader in the streaming market while reshaping consumption habits across the industry. However, digital nudging presents both opportunities and challenges for customer churn management, raising critical ethical questions about autonomy and manipulation. Finding the right balance between effective customer retention strategies and ethical considerations will be vital for fostering trust and enhancing the overall user experience on the platform.
