This is exactly what Netflix is betting on.

” Not Amazon Video, not YouTube, not even old-fashioned broadcasters. No, according to the company's chief executive, Reed Hastings, Netflix's biggest competitor is the pesky human need to close your eyes and sleep for a third of the day.”

I don't really get why Netflix would want to make customers watch more. I mean, you pay the same price whether you watch or not.

They logically should care about making people watch a minimum amount that ensures they keep paying, but beyond that it's worthless.
