It is best if Netflix will roll a single type of account with a single user only but at a very reasonable price.

I don’t mind actually compensating a company for a service we use so much. They will most likely gain three new accounts just from us. One account lost from you and your friends, three new ones from my family and me.

      Other streaming services are watching this closely and will most likely mirror it if it works.

I work for ten hour and my sister babysitting my daughter. I my daughter and sister are at home to watch Netflix at her home when my daughter leaves school. Until me or my husband come picks her up. The only time we get to watch Netflix as a family is on the weekends. So that's bullshit

                      Alexvip, 01 Feb 2023Yep, such a greedy company need to stay away. I’m planning ... more"such a greedy company" – every company is greedy to survive, even a cash-rich company like Apple. But we have high expectations from Netflix, it's the best out there with such a huge catalogue. Competition is getting tougher, and Netflix needs to bring more good movies and shows without cancelling them. 🙏

And we all pay equally for it because i won't have a Netflix account on my own. I don't have time to watch mostly but i didn't cancel it because i was sharing and its merely 5 bucks a month.
                          Would I pay 18/20 dollars a month and have solo access? No, not at all. I asked the friends i share with and they won't as well. So Netflix is losing an account. I have other friends who share with another or more and so far I know, they won't continue with Netflix if password sharing is stopped.

                              Time to downgrade my plan, better yet, cancel Netflix. I can get 100% of my shows for free.

                                    Aside from the whole family sharing bs I have many devices hooked up to my Netflix. Not just others in my home but many of my own devices because as a tech nerd I have many devices. I'd have to one by one do this verification with tvs, game systems, phones, and tablets???
                                    Get the f*** over yourselves.

                                      This is bogus and insane. It's not hurting your revenue. The price we pay has doubled.
                                      It's hurting your greed.
