The Hollywood Reporter has posted an interview with Netflix CEO Reed Hastings.
THR: How will the public consume movies 10 years from now?
Hastings: I think television will radically change. We'll move from this era of control -- where cable or satellite gives you 50-500 channels -- to an era of freedom where, from your television, you can get any Internet video from CNN.com, Fox.com, Europeansports.com, Playboy.com, YouTube.com, whatever. This opening-up of the content universe for Internet video is the big opportunity ahead.THR: Will theaters still be popular?
Hastings: Absolutely. Movie theaters have a very special place as an entertainment destination, and I don't see them going away -- ever.
