Raising prices just to raise prices when they made 5 billion dollars from the failed merger. Yeah, that’s why piracy is back.

They are probably right in their calculation. Probably not enough to cause people to cancel who enjoy Netflix. Just enough to irritate them. Netflix does not care about bad publicity. If the WB deal went through the price increase would be far greater.

Already cancelled, I found the wind against my sails to be a much more affordable and reliable service.

So depressing. Premium started at $12 and now it is going to be $27 at a time when their catalogue is smaller than it has ever been.

I can’t wait until some of these services collapse under their own greed.

“Netflix, for the second time in a little over a year, is raising prices for its three plans in the U.S” first sentence in the article. Which is true the first sentence or the headline?

Cancelling.

i stopped paying for subscriptions and started buying blurays a couple of years ago and what can i say, my catalogue is bigger and my 4K movies have higher bandwidth

I get my Netflix for free as part of my phone plan. So there’s no point in me canceling when I’m not paying for it

Got to raise more money for utterly incompetent sports broadcasts

I’m trying to think of what’s on Netflix that I give a shit about to pay that much money for on a monthly basis. I truly don’t know so I may just cancel.
Sweaty_Buttcheeks on
I can’t justify the spending the monthly sub cost anymore. Especially for $20 to hear the same 3 voice actors dubbing foreign films/shows poorly. RIP to my 14 year account.

I’m not sure what real benefit there is from Netflix nowadays when there are services like Tubi or YouTube movies
But I also have a criterion subscription for those very specific itches lol

And this is why I only ever subscribe to streaming services when they give one of those 6 months for $4 a month deals.

Fuck all these streaming services. Piracy has never been more ethical.

Due to unforeseen increases in the cost of deploying a completely digital product, we are forced to increase our pricing. We don’t want it any more than you do, it’s just that the costs of doing business are higher.
Did I do it with a straight face that time Franlk?

But ……… how else can they pay the top bods and the shareholders vast amounts of money?
And they’ll keep doing this because they know that, even though a few will leave due to the price hikes, those that stay will justify the price hikes because that’s factored into their greedy calculations.
