Netflix has been losing third-party content very rapidly for a while now, but users seem to be sticking regardless. Scrolling through their front page right now I'd say a good 80-90% of shows I see are Netflix-produced, and it isn't going to be hard for anyone to find something that is good enough to watch.

Globally Netflix doesn't have much competition. HBO, Amazon, Hulu etc are America focused while Netflix has done a lot to cater to local markets.

Netflix has stacks of local market competition in every local market. They're just not companies Americans know of.

I'm in the UK and I can't really think of any serious competition they have here. Maybe Amazon, but I don't know anybody who's talking about Amazon Prime originals.
