Netflix Inc., the world?s biggest video-streaming service, said access to its movies and television shows was restored after a disruption caused by Amazon.com Inc.?s Web storage and computing system.
Many customers in the Americas weren?t able to access online content from approximately 3:30 p.m. EDT until late Christmas Eve, according to Joris Evers, a spokesman for Netflix. The blockage was caused by issues with Amazon Web Services, a business hosted on the Internet that?s separate from the online retail store, he said.
Subscription and on-demand services are becoming an important source of revenue for Netflix, which first offered DVD rentals via mail. Streaming services made up 70 percent of sales in the third quarter. Chief Executive Officer Reed Hastings has led a push to make Los Gatos, Calif.-based Netflix available around the world, arguing people will pay for near-instant access to content online.
