LOS GATOS, Calif., March 21 (UPI) -- Netflix CEO Reed Hastings said Thursday that he strongly supports net neutrality rules and that they reluctantly paid Comcast to seamlessly stream their content.
The new agreement with Comcast would have Netflix install dedicated servers that connect directly with Comcast's network and will ensure smooth streaming for their subscribers. The deal came after U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia tossed out the Federal Communications Commission's net neutrality rules in January.
