What the movie titan thinks about ... well, lots of things.

In the latest installment of our Motley Fool Conversations podcast, I spoke with Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) CEO Reed Hastings. Among the topics we discussed:

What is the biggest threat Netflix faces right now?
How much longer will DVDs be the company’s primary delivery mode?
Will Netflix’s future include Amazon’s (NASDAQ:AMZN) video-on-demand and Google’s (NASDAQ:GOOG) YouTube?
What was the last great movie Hastings watched?
