        Yeah, but just a reason to re-evaluate if the content they have is worth the money. It’s not like they have some moral obligation to keep the prices low. I don’t see it as a dick move. I don’t have any other video streaming subscriptions so it wasn’t a big difference for me.

      They banned password sharing (family account) if everyone doesn’t live in the same location sometime ago.

        I don’t see this as a dick move. The rules were clear from the start, they just started enforcing theme. It’s not a bait and switch or something.

            If you subscribed to Netflix because you planned on sharing password and you think it’s not worth the full price then the moment you can’t share your password anymore and you cancel it. No money lost, you used it for some time and now you don’t use it. What’s the problem? Did you get addicted to it? It’s not cigarettes. Seriously, it’s entertainment and people talk about it like its insulin.

            I wasn’t sharing my password with anyone so I didn’t care about the policy change.

                Yes, corporation raise prices when they think people are willing to pay higher price for their product. Is this news to you? Where do you live? I would like to move there and live happily without ever knowing how the world functions and worrying about it.

          Ssh we’re mad at netflix, you’re not supposed to be defending them…

          Shm yeah netflix may be scum, but enforcing password sharing policies, which had been part of the EULA from day 1, isn’t scummy.

            They marketed 4 streams. Not 4 seats. [And only getting 1 seat 4 times, which is fucking pointless.] That’s a whole different meaning. No one reads the EULA so it doesn’t fucking matter what horse shit Naziflix puts in the fine print.
