They smashed the expected paid subscriber count in today's earnings (7.6mil vs 4.7 expected) but missed earnings by a lot because of debt. Still sent the share price up. Will be interesting to see once this crackdown comes into place.

The only reason I have my account active right now is because of my Dad. Once they implement this, I will pause it. Then I will activate it once there's enough content for me to maximize for a month. Then repeat.

Already said it before, but just introduce an ad version, and keep exclusives behind a paywall, even if just timed.

Already said it before, but just introduce an ad version, and keep exclusives behind a paywall, even if just timed.

I think they’ll have to keep certain anime begging said pay wall, because most of it is presented commercial free in Japan, dunno if it’s a public tv thing/issue…but it was in their contact

I just got my email from Netflix about the whole password sharing stuff. Already chatted with my Dad and it looks like we'll be cancelling it.

If they would have left things alone, then I'd still be doing what I'm doing. Instead, I'll wait for some content that I'm interested in and include him for a month or 2 and then cancel again.

Their loss.
