Netflix
is expanding into Japan towards the end of 2015, marking the first time
that the Internet video service will be available in Asia.
The
move announced late Wednesday marks another step toward reaching
Netflix's goal to stream video on Internet-connected TVs, phones,
tablets and computer throughout the world.
Netflix CEO Reed Hastings last month pledged to complete the company's international push by the end of next year.
The
service already sells video subscriptions to a mix of original
programming, movies and TV series in more than 50 countries. New Zealand
and Australia are scheduled to join that list next month.
Netflix
will open an office in Tokyo as part of its entry into Japan. The Los
Gatos, California, company didn't specify what date in autumn that the
Japanese service will debut.
