According to research firm NPA, the US Netflix is about to become the French market leader, with 900,000 subscribers expected by the end of 2015 and generate nearly $ 170 million. Also according to NPA, The rise of Netflix in France itself leaves behind are direct competitor CanalPlay (Canal + Group). The number of French subscribers will reach 900,000 end of 2015, 1.8 million in 2016 to approach 3 million by 2018. Note that SVOD services in France can offer only theatrical releases of movies for over three years because of regulations on media chronology. It is therefore easy to imagine that if current regulations were to be alleviated, these forecasts could even be revised upwards.
