Which at one point wasn't a static landing page. Netflix has something of a captive market at this point in time; but could a newer startup scrambling to gain users afford to make the same choices?
I would hope that a startup scrambling to gain users would be able to explain in a simple static html site why their service is worth bothering with.
If I'm not particularly interested, I'm not going to wait around for mountains of JS to download and execute, and the typical content-free startup landing page full of hero images, stock photos, and vague bullet points to load up.
A rather unnecessary statement, don't you think?
