Netflix password sharing

Believe their stock is down 30%. It took that for them to care about password sharing? If so, a little shortsighted. Also looking at lower fee subscription with ads.

This is the deal. Gas and everything is thru the roof. You are the first on the chopping block with family budgets.

I’ve been using my parents login since high school, no way I’m paying for it myself though.

All these streaming services are going to compete themselves to death, it’s almost getting cheaper to just get cable again.

Correct. Their current strategy to move toward a "password-sharing" discounted solution is beyond stupid. That would encourage subscribers that currently are following the rules and paying for their own account to go in as a group with friends to lower their per-subscriber monthly fee.

If you're not living in their home anymore, then you are part of the problem. Everybody thinks they are owed things for free.

I pay extra to have multiple users. That covers my wife and daughters. I use my daughter’s Disney+. I don’t bitch at the extra and every time they up the monthly subscription…so I don’t see the entitlement.

Sharing accounts within a household is allowed. If your daughters are grown up and out of the house, then they should have their own accounts. It's not a really difficult concept.

My daughter uses my NF account and I use her Prime. They've both jacked the rates up. It's not a sin to share. And, it sure aint a crime.

It is stealing. These streaming services are jacking up the monthly subscription rates because people like you are stealing the service for free. The rest of us are subsidizing your theft.

If you want to subsidize me, pay for my medical insurance. If the streaming rates go up any higher, I will cancel. Then you can still pay what they want to charge and can't blame me. Good grief. A gallon of gas costs as much as a pound of ground beef. On sale. With a coupon.

Newsflash: I don't give a crap if you stream Netflix. In fact, if you're not paying for it, then I PREFER that you don't stream Netflix. You're adding to their costs while giving zero revenue. Then, Netflix has to increase the monthly fee to people that actually don't steal their service, like me. I'm sick of subsidizing everybody else.

It’s the same thing as paying taxes. The portion that tax cheats evade is being paid for by the honest filers.

I disagree with you. My daughters are always in my “household”. Thinking the “difficult concept” for you is running your own life and getting that right before you attempt to fix others.

If your daughters are grown and out of the house on their own, they are no longer considered part of your household. I don't give you a **** if you don't like me. I'm sick of all the entitlement.

You are illegally sharing your passwords with people that should be on their own account. That's stealing. Then, you're apparently (according to you) using your daughter's password for another streaming service - also stealing.
