Abstract
This dissertation investigates consumers' platform preferences in the streaming services sector, with a specific focus on "Netflix". Through a carefully designed survey with simulated posters of leading platforms such as "HBO", "Netflix" and "Disney Plus", the study aimed to uncover consumers' subconscious decision-making processes through the selection of these posters, in a process divided into 3 phases, without any descriptive information about them. During the survey 77% of participants chose "Netlix" as their preferred platform, however, the evaluation phase of the survey posters revealed a complex and diverse scenario where this preference did not manifest itself. Participants' variedchoices challenged the notion of loyalty to a fixed platform, showing a nuanced
understanding of their preferences. The research provides valuable information about consumers' selections, highlighting their discerning nature and individual preferences in terms of content. This challenges traditional assumptions and highlights the influential role of the modern consumer in shaping the streaming sector.
