Loses Starz Entertainment partnership
After a significant dip in Netflix stock, Starz Entertainment announces that they would not be renewing their deal with Netflix. The agreement was strictly for streaming movies, so Netflix DVD rentals were not affected. Starz’s decision means Netflix customers will no longer have access to movie titles from Disney or Sony Pictures, as Starz was the sole distributor of the films.
