* FriendlyEnemy: While both Amazon and Netflix have competing streaming services, and both are becoming heavy-hitters in distributing original content and bidding for films, Netflix recently [[http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2016/02/netflix-finishes-its-massive-migration-to-the-amazon-cloud/ moved]] all data center operations for the streaming service (except for content delivery, which is housed in Netflix-maintained boxes throughout the Internet backbone providers) onto ''Amazon's'' cloud services. Only the DVD rental business still uses a physical data center. And to top it off, Amazon Studios actually went worldwide 11 months later, which many see as a in a bid to play catch up with Netflix.

* FriendlyEnemy: While both Amazon and Netflix Creator/{{Netflix}} have competing streaming services, services (Amazon Prime vs Netflix), and both are becoming heavy-hitters in distributing original content content, and are always going to be in an endless war for bidding for films, films and TV Shows (comes with the territory), they don't exactly hate each other outside of being business rivals.

Legally speaking, Amazon can't turn Netflix away for wanting to use their data servers, as that would be seen as an anti-competitive practice. Only the DVD rental business still uses a physical data center. And to top it off, Amazon Studios actually went worldwide 11 months later, which many see saw as a in a bid to play catch up with Netflix.Creator/{{Netflix}}.
