Title: The Impact of Big Data on Streaming Service Content Selection: A Case Study of Netflix and Hulu

When you are trying to convince someone why your position is valid, having research to back up your claim can strengthen your point and convince them.In this unit, you learned about analyzing data. In your programs, you used rather small data sets. Real-world research often studies massive quantities of data, often referred to as “big data.” Can you think of reasons why having large quantities of data is important? In this project, you will research a big data application.
Objectives
Write a scientific report modeling a written research paper on big data applications.
Your Task
Think of an area that interests you: sports, arts, entertainment, international relief efforts, government, careers, or the weather. 
Think of a question you would like to answer. Is it better to wait until the battery is low before you recharge your smartphone? How does a streaming service like Netflix or Hulu decide which shows to offer? 
Look for a website where someone already collected a large quantity of data to answer that question. While commercial big data sets may have tens of thousands of values, for this project, look for a data set with at least 100 values.  
You are not going to write a program to analyze these data because you have not yet covered how to read data files. You can describe how the researcher(s) who collected the data used them to answer your question.
