Netflix testing interactive live sports features

[Bussin]

Netflix is reportedly experimenting with interactive live sports features as competition between streaming platforms intensifies. The company wants viewers to engage with live stats, polls and alternate camera feeds during events.

Streaming platforms are slowly turning into full entertainment ecosystems instead of passive viewing services. The challenge is whether users actually want extra features or just reliable streams that do not buffer constantly.
