Short YouTube commentary (Scott Empringham) reflecting on Netflix’s evolution and the general lesson that starting imperfectly produces stronger stories and progress. The speaker notes that Netflix began in non-streaming forms, that early marketing materials would look laughable today, and uses this to argue that many people wait for a perfect launch—“perfect is the enemy of progress.”

Netflix didn't start off as a streaming service. There's been different versions. I mean, your materials, marketing materials. 10 years ago. You look at them today and you're like, oh, my gosh, that's laughable. But you had marketing materials. Most people just never do it. You said it exactly right, Jimmy. Most people are waiting for that launch. I mean, perfect is the enemy of progress. Yeah.
