Netflix hints at password sharing crackdown as subscribers fall
They&#x27;re losing subscribers, because of multiple reasons, most of which are their own fault:<p>- Subscription prices keep rising, and they were already very high.<p>- Libraries decreasing as they lose the licensing to other streaming services.<p>- Originals are hit and miss, mostly miss, and get cancelled constantly after 1 season.<p>- Crackdown on VPN and password sharing.<p>- COVID lockdowns are mostly over in Europe, US and Canada.<p>-Libraries outside the US are a fraction of the size of the US library, some legitimately have less than 10% of its content, while asking for the same amount of money.<p>- More competition than ever, and it&#x27;s only growing.<p>Increasing the sub prices and cracking down further, isn&#x27;t going to bring in more customers on an already diluted competitive market.<p>Also on the password sharing specifically.<p>We pay for 2 or 4 simultaneous streams on Netflix. It doesn&#x27;t matter if I&#x27;m at home streaming, while someone 15min away from me is also streaming it on the same account. I paid you for the connections, you shouldn&#x27;t tell me who can use them or from where.
