I definitely agree with that statement. I was disagreeing with the idea that function wasn't part of the focus of the design of the Netflix apps. I probably shouldn't have included your first sentence in my quote.

And honestly, I don't think the design of the applications has had any real impact on the success of the companies that @viztastic mentioned. They are all what they are because of the content they supply.
