SK Broadband and Netflix Resolve Dispute, Form Partnership to Explore AI

South Korean telco SK Broadband sued Netflix in 2021 for network usage fees, claiming Netflix owed $24M for its traffic in 2020.

Netflix refused to pay, saying its content delivery network Open Connect reduces traffic.

SK Broadband and Netflix reached a truce and formed a partnership to benefit customers.

The partnership includes bundled packages, joint products, and exploring AI technology.

SK Broadband will work with Netflix and others to evolve into an AI company.
