Streaming costs are rising, and there are more platforms than ever to choose between. Some people are going back to piracy (www.abc.net.au)

Nah - Netflix, and all the others, have absolutely shit the bed on this one.

I was happily paying for 5 or 6 streaming services a month. Then they got greedy, started price gouging, and reducing the quality and/or range of content. Netflix even wanted to charge me for password sharing, because my stepkids used our account at their dad's house.

They all fucked themselves over.

I cancelled Netflix when they implemented that policy, but they reported that their revenue went up, so most people didn't cancel, and a bunch of people signed up.

The sad part is they were awake, in bed, not even trusting the wrong fart, just outright splatter blasting their sheets.
