Ah yes, because derivative reality shows and bottom-of-the-barrel adult cartoons are so expensive to produce.
What the hell happened, you used to be good.
Just cancelled, haven't touched NF since I subbed to HBO (and even that is getting cancelled next month). Maybe its time to try Hulu.
I say we should collectively strike from streaming platforms to send a message. If you want to watch shows, collect DVDs from the library or thrift store and rip them to a USB drive. If you have a newer TV with a built in media player, it can read the video formats on the USB drive for quick access to your favorite shows.
Yeah cause collective strikes of a vocal minority work out so great in the end lol
but in this case me cancelling all my subscriptions led me to a great hobby and acquiring my own media instead of trying to figure out what streaming service has what is so much better, plus sharing it with friends and family so they dont need streaming services, at least not all of them is great
Sure. It won't change Netflix, their pricing or their decisions though. Unless something really big happens (and by that I mean like 20% of all subscribers leaving) they won't care.
