      Just vote with your wallet unless you want ALL of the streaming services to support this.

      Piracy sites will support this decision thought(they get more users).

        dexterouz, 01 Feb 2023"such a greedy company" – every company is greedy... moreMaybe in the US but in Europe, especially in eastern Europe it's crap. You are much better off with Disney or HBO or Prime. You can get HBO and Prime for the price of Netflix.

          Mass consumers don't walk their talk or don't put their mouth where their money is.

            JG01, 02 Feb 2023Like what? Please tell...been looking for an alternative .The internet is a wide wide world. Look around.

              So for those of us with multiple homes and/or cabin(s) where we can stay for a few months (more than 31 days) at a time at each, we need multiple accounts for the same user. Unless we go back to the one trusted ip address once every 31 days.

              Safe to assume there will be a limit as to how often the trusted home "Wi-FI" (because Smart TVs, consoles and computers don't have Ethernet, Netflix?) can be changed?

              As if Netflix and their loss of third party titles, as well as super woke productions, aren't reasons enough to cancel xD

We all have k... morethats the thing. we'll see if their approach really is sustainable. while several other streaming services coming with good collections, its yet to be seen how many more customers are there like you who would stick to them by opening new account for each person. if a lot, win for Netflix, if not much, yeah they have to find another way.
                anyway by reading from the comment section, such a case like yours is rare.

                    Looks like 1 less crappy service I will be giving up.

                      Paying 45 euros monthly for fastest internet in my country and a TV with around 250 channel via optic cable.
                      I think thats enough.
                      Maybe the netflix is not bad and maybe it is.
                      On these pages about netflix many people said its always the same thing.

                          what if someone does'nt have wifi and uses only mobile network and buys netflix 4 screen plan?

                            If they trace you with ip address like this, can you still use VPN to watch content from other countries?!

It might not affect you given you don't use it and clearly don't actually know what is on it apart from hearsay but it's currently the most popular subscription based streaming service on the planet. There's a reason for that. Some content is terrible and dated but some is actually fresh and exciting. No problem though coz people that want it and are trying to be law abiding citizens, like myself, can easily get the same content for free online. May not be legal but who really cares.

                                  Well what if one family uses but live far away from each other Netflix should pay for the tickets too then

                                    Providing a solution to password sharing by creating another problem. They really took a dump on the UX of their own service. At least with fmovies dot to I don't have to read absurd rules such as this to watch content I want to watch. Sail the seas mate.

                                      Is there any premium tire so we pay and forget the rest ?!
                                      and if not then I don't see any usage of buying High Res plan I'm okay with Basic Plan
