You Know Netflix? Meet RightNow Media

Welcome to the 21st century!  If you haven’t taken a look at RightNow Media (or if you haven’t looked lately…), you need to check this out.

First…the Backstory

Netflix entered the entertainment media business in 1997, with a unique strategy that quickly took out Blockbuster as the way to rent and watch movies.  A simple concept, instead of building retail stores…they just mailed you the DVD.  That was 1997.  In 2007, Netflix introduced video-on-demand via the internet.  By 2010, Netflix’s streaming business had grown so quickly that within months the company had shifted from the fastest-growing customer of the United States Postal Service’s first-class mail service to the biggest source of Internet traffic in North America in the evening (from Wikipedia’s Netflix article).

Enter RightNow Media

Partnering with bluefish tv, one of the earliest producers of Christian video content, RightNow Media has rapidly developed a video library of over 3400 discipleship videos for kids, youth and adults and a delivery system that allows that content to be streamed to any  device (computer, iPhone, iPad, Android, etc.)?  Their library is filled with amazing teachers on a variety of great topics.

In addition to their Bible study library, you’ll also find a customizable leadership training library as well as a growing library of sessions from leadership events like Catalyst, Verge, and the RightNow Conference.

If you’re a Netflix customer, you already know how easy it is stream content right into your living room (or for that matter, your laptop at Starbucks).  If you’re unfamiliar (and maybe a little nervous), RightNow Media has developed a great set of video tutorials that will have you watching Andy Stanley, Max Lucado or Francis Chan in minutes.
