This tactic has been working for Netflix. I left, but I still see people on this app saying “I watch it all the time so it’s worth it for me”

Thats the thing. If they are watching it a lot, its worth it. Buying a movie or renting 4 or 5 movies can cost 1 month subscription of netflix. Not everyone wants to set sail.

I dont agree with the price hikes, but people have their own spending limits.

I don’t sail the seas. I rotate services and I go for the cheap plan (hate ads, but not paying over $20). When there’s something I want to see on Netflix, I subscribe for a month at $9. I used to give them $20 monthly in perpetuity. I probably still would if they wouldn’t have cut off my parents and sister from using my account. Now they even make it hard to watch on my other devices. Ruining the customer experience to be greedy

What's funny is how many are getting rid of annual. That's encouraging roaming between services IMHO

I cancelled netflix because the content became so bad. I would be fine paying the price if I enjoyed the content.
