The key lesson I would learn (contrary to the author's here) is that in order to create a content enterprise you have to focus on content distribution (this is pretty much true of anything). Yes, Netflix buys, produces and sells content. But it is a content distribution network. And (thinking more broadly) not even that - it's helping people entertain themselves using their mobile devices. Yes, they buy and sell content to do it. But look where the locus of control is. There's no 'Netflix of Education' not because the technology is hard, but because nobody in education has figured this out yet (well, eccept me, and nobody is listening to me - but if I ever get my hands on startup money, watch out).
