How does this comment end up under every post about Netflix? Take a look at their financials. They’re doing fine. Great, even. Their decisions may be unpopular with a tiny but vocal minority, but let’s deal in facts here.
Yeah, I don’t like it but after they came down on password sharing their subscription numbers rose, not fell. This will likely be another move that’s anti-consumer but pro-investor.
Yep their evidence shows the password sharing crackdown got them more subs overall and I’m sure they have checked this will work too. People forget the purpose is to make them money not provide entertainment to the masses.
Yeah, I’m not a fan of the form of capitalism that’s about selling what they want us to buy instead of what we want to buy, but it seems to be working for pretty much every company out there.
I guess we missed our window of opportunity with Netflix. We moved to the middle of nowhere with no internet or cell service 12 years ago. We’ve had Starlink for nearly 2 years and are just starting to run out of stuff available for free on our Roku. It’s been a couple of decades since I played with, um, other options, but I somehow doubt it’s become more difficult. :)

If any company knows how to fast track their way into bankruptcy, it would be Netflix. Kudo’s for them to try and improve their previous track record!
