Episode 86: Infrastructure News and Earnings from Akamai, Fastly, Broadpeak; Roku Earnings and Stock Drop; Super Bowl Streaming Viewership

This week, we cover infrastructure news and Q4 and full-year earnings from Akamai, Fastly, and Broadpeak, highlighting overall CDN industry revenue growth, pricing trends, and Akamai's continued dominance of the content delivery market. We also discuss the Super Bowl stream on Paramount+, my 8.5 million AMA viewership, and the reported news that Amazon secured an exclusive NFL playoff game for Prime Video in 2025. We detail why Roku's stock is getting hammered, even with the company beating all of the street's expectations in its Q4 earnings results with revenue up 14% year-over-year, active accounts growing 14% year-over-year to 80 million, and its achievement of positive adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow for the full year 2023, ahead of schedule. Finally, the plot thickens as we examine the Disney, Fox, and WBD streaming partnership, the DOJ's potential scrutiny, and predictions of how giants like the NFL might play their hand next.Podcast produced by Security Halt Media
