i think julianna mentioned that as well. he was saying the focus for the analyst community looking ahead is less on perhaps subscriber growth but more on revenue growth and how netflix is going to look to monetize on their subscriber base and new subscribers as well. what are you looking at there? >> exactly. netflix as i indicated earlier, at very much a different phase of growth. it's all about extrapolating as much revenue from the subscription base as possible. moving into new areas and buying not only physical products but services. they may move into games. at some point in time you could see games becoming available as an add-on option. there's obviously the ads here, the path to a cr-- password cra. it's possible they could move into other areas such as, you know, rental, making movies after the actual release. right now you have to leave the netflix platform and go elsewhere to apple or amazon to be able to pay to watch those movies once they become available. i think netflix needs to think of itself respectfully, i
