The real Netflix origin story. Messier and better than the myth.

Why it matters

Randolph was the actual co-founder of Netflix and this is his account of the early days. No revisionism, no smooth trajectory. Just bad ideas, near-failures, and pivots. More honest than most startup memoirs. The chapter on naming the company alone is worth reading.
