The Internet film and TV subscription service Netflix says it is now offering its content to Cuban consumers.
The announcement comes as Internet access improves, and credit and debit cards become more widely available in the island country.
"We are delighted to finally be able to offer Netflix to the people of Cuba, connecting them with stories they will love from all over the world," Netflix co-founder and Chief Executive Officer Reed Hastings said in a statement Monday. "Cuba has great filmmakers and a robust arts culture, and one day we hope to be able to bring their work to our global audience of over 57 million members."
Netflix streams thousands of movies and TV series, as well as its own original programs such as House of Cards and Orange is the New Black.
