Guess this was hogwash then...
UK Govt: Netflix Password Sharing is Illegal & Potentially Criminal ...

I do think that this is a bad move on Netflix's part, especially since they've been losing subscribers like crazy.I use Netflix gift cards when I want to watch something on Netflix. I buy them at a local grocery store that has an amazing rewards program! I wait until they have a 4X the bonus points for a gift card special, and I buy one, and save it until I want to watch something. The benefit of this is that I use my rewards to save money on fuel!!!

Other than Stranger Things, I haven't had anything on it that I've found worth watching recently, I'm probably cancelling mine as well to save a little bit.

Not much of a TV watcher but T Mobile gave me Netflix and Paramount and AppleTV+. So I’ve watched some Netflix over the months. Paramount and AppleTV just doesn’t get much of my attention. I had Prime as part of an Amazon Prime trial plus two paid months. Watched some.

IMO Netflix is the best. I wouldn’t pay for it or any of them but they are the best. But they are the most expensive too(?). Ultimately everyone better realize they all will be going up again soon. The current streamer model is very largely not profitable.

Indeed. I’m one price increase away from dropping them. Enough is enough.
