Formula 1: Drive to Survive Season 1 Episode 1 ”All to Play For”

Watched F1: Drive to Survive ”All to Play For”

“Drive to Survive,” the highly-anticipated new Netflix series on the 2018 Formula 1 season, arrived on the platform this Friday. Ferrari and Mercedes declined to participate in the project and refused the Netflix team access to their garages and factories. The series will focus on the remaining F1 teams, notably Red Bull, McLaren, Hass, Renault, and Williams. The absence of Formula One's two most celebrated teams does not spoil the show. In my opinion, it makes the show even more enjoyable as I can watch the teams fight for wins.

Netlifx and Apple

On Netflix Pulling Out of iTunes Billing for New Users by John Gruber (Daring Fireball)

If Apple wants to insist on a cut of in-app purchased subscription revenue, that’s their prerogative. What gets me, though, are the rules that prevent apps that eschew in-app purchases from telling users in plain language how to actually pay. Not only is Netflix not allowed to link to their website, they can’t even tell the user they need to go to netflix.com to sign up.

I agree with Gruber. This isn’t right.
