The concept involves receiving monetary compensation for viewing content on a popular streaming platform. This typically occurs through various mechanisms such as becoming a Netflix tagger (editorial analyst), participating in market research studies that require viewing and evaluating shows, or working for websites or companies that write reviews and summaries of streaming content. An example of this arrangement is a company hiring individuals to watch series and write synopses for distribution.
This activity’s appeal lies in its potential to combine leisure with income generation. Historically, opportunities to get compensated for consuming media were limited, but the rise of streaming services has expanded the scope of these possibilities. Benefits can range from supplemental income to a fulfilling career for individuals passionate about television and film. Further, it provides market research data to companies, aiding in content optimization and audience understanding.
