From the WSJ article on Netflix's q2 cc and report, online.wsj.com Updated July 21, 2014 7:59 p.m. ET about working with Verizon: Netflix has argued it shouldn't have to pay for "interconnection" deals, arguing such practices violate "strong" net neutrality—the concept that all Internet traffic should be handled equally. The providers, in turn, have shot back that Netflix was enabling a deteriorating streaming experience for their shared subscribers by routing its traffic inefficiently to pressure the providers. In an interview Monday, Netflix Chief Executive Reed Hastings said he met with Verizon CEO Lowell McAdam at Allen & Co.'s Sun Valley media conference and they agreed to have both their teams "working harder to have faster Netflix on Verizon." Mr. Hastings said there should be "rapid improvement over the coming months"—earlier than the end-of-year time frame that Verizon has previously said.
