<p><strong>Why It's Important:</strong> Outside of companies like <strong>Amazon.com Inc </strong>(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) and <strong>Apple Inc</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), which own streaming platforms, Netflix is worth significantly more than its streaming and media rivals.</p>
<p>The other key competitor is YouTube, which is owned by<strong> Alphabet Inc </strong>(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), another tech giant valued higher than Netflix.</p>
<p>YouTube and Netflix ranked first and second respectively for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43104552/youtube-vs-netflix-streamers-top-usage-leaderboard-in-december-sector-makes-more-gains-on-broadcast-and-cable">December market share</a> for streaming according to a Nielsen report. YouTube's December market share hit a company record 11.1% in December. Netflix tied its company record with an 8.5% market share in December.</p>
<p>Streaming hit a market share of 43.3%, up 9% from November. Broadcast television had market share of 22.4%, cable television had market share of 23.8% and other options came in at 10.6%, according to the report.</p>
<p>Netflix highlighted its strong lineup of content in the fourth quarter helping subscriber growth. That lineup included NFL games on Christmas, a second season of "Squid Game" and a record-breaking boxing match between <strong>Jake Paul </strong>and <strong>Mike Tyson</strong>.</p>
<p>The streaming company highlighted its 2025 content slate including new seasons of "Squid Game," "Stranger Things" and "Wednesday." The company will also have several live streamed events again including at least one NFL game on Christmas along with its WWE partnership that kicked off in January.</p>
<p>Netflix's commanding market share and encroachment into traditional media has been going on for years and could continue well into the future.</p>

<p>Patrick Bertagna, MetAlert CEO, reflected, &quot;Level 2&#39;s patented technology, which specializes in monitoring unauthorized&nbsp;<strong>use and movement</strong>&nbsp;of firearms and other valuable mobile assets, is a natural synergistic extension to our product line and ethos of providing technology that supports saving lives.&quot;&nbsp;</p>

Last September, $100 million in grant funding was initiated under the Community Violence Intervention and Prevention Initiative, making this the most significant targeted federal investment for these strategies in history.</p>

<p>Tom Willingham, President and CEO of Range USA, expressed, &quot;Gun safety is paramount to our stated mission, and we plan to roll out the&nbsp;<strong><em>GunAlert</em></strong>&nbsp;product across all of our retail locations and make it available through our&nbsp;<a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://rangeusa.com/product/gunalert#product_detail" style="color:#4a6ee0; background:transparent; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt" target="_blank">online sales</a>, augmenting our current line of accessories.&quot;</p>
