This is so strange to me. I guess people enjoy being ripped off and getting less and less value for their money.

Weird. I can find and download a movie in a couple of minutes. It's almost as easy as learning how to download and navigate Netflix.

Pirating movies has never been easier, but wait there's more, you can just stream them for free too.

There's even places you can buy a box for a one time fee, and have all channels and services free. Or get a subscription that offers every service and channel on earth.

It's so easy my 80 yr old father can do it.

There's no maintenance, no technical expertise needed, you don't even need a VPN.

The only thing Netflix really offers is convenience and legality.
