Xbox revenue YoY is up in the double digits. I don’t care much about your sources, I’m sure you’re spinning that, it’s more how horribly organized and ugly the graphs are.

Not to mention how in the world can you tell what the normalized growth of GamePass is when you have no idea how many subscribers there are, what they are paying, and what MS spends to acquire content.

If you took a look at what Netflix was spending early on to get the streaming service off the ground you would have thought they’d be out of business quickly.

Again, which console warrior forum did you find this at? Please tell me you got it off GameFAQS and didn’t make it yourself.

Every gaming company's revenue is up double digits LMAO. Did you sleep throughout 2020?

Aww is the reality of market data hurting your imagination?

Source of the numbers are from company FY reports. You can check the numbers yourself to verify, its all from there.

I think its apparent that you are in over your head with even the most basic financial analysis. Netflix started streaming in 2007.

Notice the word normalised. Gradients of Netflix, Spotify, Prime, even in their early years are evidently vastly different to Xbox.

Where did you find this, Twitter or Reddit? I really hope you didn't waste your time making this because it's terrible. 

Why? It clearly shows, Xbox's sub model isn't moving the needle, isn't growing like a successful sub service and most of all (which is why I suspect some are so taken back), Gamepass is not the Netflix of gaming lol

Netflix grew 10x in 10 years.

Lol what? It took 6 years for Netflix to reach the same sub numbers Game Pass was at in 4 years and it took year 8 for it to reach similar growth that it took for Game Pass in 4 years, so twice as long. Game Pass is still limited to Xbox consoles, PC, mobile, and tablets, compared to the number of platforms Netflix is available on now. Xcloud launched last week in Japan, Mexico, Australia, and Brazil with high demand in those regions. The number of regions will continue to grow and the amount of platforms will as well. 

Look, I found an graph that's readable. Take note. 

A bad analysis.

Netflix pioneered streaming content ten years before Gamepass. Streaming models are more common in 2020 and customers are quicker to adopt said services thanks to Netflix.

Disney+ has 100M+ subs in less than two years.

Also please look at revenue, subs each have different pricing options. Spotify has 300M+ subs but many are free tier. Revenue is what makes the business.

This is why I showed YoY growth throughout the years

Notice, subs start with big growth usually 50%+ and then the successful ones still maintain 20-30% growth despite making billions and having 100M+ users.

Xbox is hardly moving the needle and growth is sub 20%

This shows the difference even clearer. Notice the exponential increase in revenue from everything but Xbox.
