What makes the products a little bit different is that each company provides the same or wider assortment of movie choices. ]]> 2017-11-03 15:13:46 UTC https://padlet.com/ajaney/v3utr1t5r7vg/wish/203331588 ajaney https://padlet.com/ajaney/v3utr1t5r7vg/wish/203335036 A Oligopoly structure has many barriers to enter or exit the market that's why it contains very FEW sellers. These few sellers sell similar or identical products to their consumers. ]]> 2017-11-03 15:20:08 UTC https://padlet.com/ajaney/v3utr1t5r7vg/wish/203335036 ajaney https://padlet.com/ajaney/v3utr1t5r7vg/wish/203338231 2017-11-03 15:25:15 UTC https://padlet.com/ajaney/v3utr1t5r7vg/wish/203338231 ajaney https://padlet.com/ajaney/v3utr1t5r7vg/wish/203340507 Some advantages of having a oligopoly market structure is that there are fewer competitors in the market so sellers will lower prices or offer discounts so they don't lose customers.These companies in an oligopoly structure compete for customers through advertising, which in turn gives the customer the best quality information so they know if what they are getting is what they really want. An example of this is how Netflix has become the prominent company in movie streaming. Because they are the most popular they provide a lower monthly fee and also are aloud to have the newest movies and tv shows on the market. Meanwhile they also have they ability to produce their own Netflix original tv shows and movies. ]]> 2017-11-03 15:28:58 UTC https://padlet.com/ajaney/v3utr1t5r7vg/wish/203340507 ajaney https://padlet.com/ajaney/v3utr1t5r7vg/wish/203340645 Some disadvantages of having an oligopoly market structure is that because there are so few seller the companies collude to form fixed prices. When sellers collude they can form a cartel which has the power of a monopoly structure. Another disadvantage to a oligopoly market structure is that its costs a lot of money to compete with other companies in advertising and the ability to draw i customers. An example of this is when Netflix started to become popular because it is easy to use, affordable, and convenient for its customers. Because of all these things Netflix was able to force competitors like Blockbuster and other movie rental places out of business because it took all their customers.  ]]> 2017-11-03 15:29:11 UTC https://padlet.com/ajaney/v3utr1t5r7vg/wish/203340645 ajaney https://padlet.com/ajaney/v3utr1t5r7vg/wish/203340826 2017-11-03 15:29:31 UTC https://padlet.com/ajaney/v3utr1t5r7vg/wish/203340826 ajaney https://padlet.com/ajaney/v3utr1t5r7vg/wish/203564394 2017-11-04 19:21:41 UTC https://padlet.com/ajaney/v3utr1t5r7vg/wish/203564394
