The Streaming Tech Podcast with Fexingo: Netflix, Spotify, and Media Technology

Written by: Fexingo
Listen for free

Every day, Lucas and Luna sit down in front of a tablet showing the streaming-technology landscape — not the movies you watch, but the infrastructure that delivers them. The Streaming Tech Podcast with Fexingo is a daily briefing on the companies, codecs, and content strategies powering Netflix, Spotify, YouTube, and the next generation of media platforms. Lucas, a journalist who has covered Big Tech for a decade, brings the numbers: Netflix's Q3 paid-sharing gains, Spotify's audiobook margin math, the cost per gigabyte of CDN versus P2P delivery. Luna, an engineer-turned-analyst, questions the assumptions — why does HDR adoption lag? Can ad-tier growth offset content spend? Their conversations are grounded in real filings, patent grants, and bandwidth reports, not hot takes. They debate whether Netflix's games strategy will ever matter, analyze YouTube's creator-economy flywheel, and parse the fine print of new FCC rules on streaming. This show is for product managers at media startups, investors tracking the streaming wars, and engineers deciding between WebRTC and HLS. Each episode ends with a specific tension: Is the cloud the right place for live sports, or is edge compute the real answer? #StreamingTech #Netflix #Spotify #YouTube #CDN #Codec #AV1 #HEVC #HDR #OTT #FASTChannels #AdTier #CreatorEconomy #MediaTechnology #Technology #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #Business Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo© 2026 Fexingo.
