“This is a foundational change in how people are consuming TV,” says Netflix International Originals chief Erik Barmack. “If you look at the Netflix of it all, look at the fact that roughly 60 percent of our audience is international. Once you’re in a world where you’re looking at subtitles or dubs, this is pretty likely to happen at least within Netflix.” He adds: “A hundred isn’t really a particularly magic number. It would give us pretty robust slate in Latin America, Europe and then starting a slate in India, the Middle East, and other parts of Asia.”
