The only streaming service I regularly use these days is Paramount+. I watch HBO just for Legendary, and haven't touched Disney/Hulu in years. The whole streaming idea will backfire soon enough. The point of streaming was to get the shows you want without the high cable prices, but now people are paying as much as cable for the amount of streaming services needed to watch all the popular shows. We just need a new service to come along and somehow shake the game up again. Sis don't leave Netflix without watching Russian Doll and Heartstopper first

1989 Posted April 25, 2022 Posted April 25, 2022 They really hurt themselves by raising prices, honestly. They probably could’ve gotten away with their terrible-to-mediocre content had they kept the prices relatively low, but hearing that they were going up made a lot of people stop and think about just how much they were using Netflix, and it turns out it wasn’t all that much. I know for me it wasn’t. Hulu, HBO Max, and Prime have been beating them in every way for quite some time.
jqnetto Posted April 26, 2022 Posted April 26, 2022 ok but we need the second season of alice in borderland before the collapse.
lenchen. Posted April 26, 2022 Posted April 26, 2022 (edited) I just unsubscribed a few weeks ago as well. The great thing about Netflix was that everything was available there (friends, the office, gossip girl, pll, new girl, modern family, breaking bad, greys anatomy) and they had a few really great original shows (oitnb, house of cards, stranger things). But they lost the licensing rights for most shows, which to be fair is not their fault, and they stopped making great content or canceled everything that was at least decent. Also no one is paying for that many streaming services. Like imagine paying for Spotify, Apple Music, Tidal, Amazon Music and Deezer because some music is only available on certain platforms Edited April 26, 2022 by lenchen.
Aiya Posted April 26, 2022 Posted April 26, 2022 I think they will be ok but they truly need to lower their price and do more quality shows

I lowkey hope the pivoting to streaming bites everyone in the ***, idk how you can greenlight so many projects with ridiculous budgets and expect to make money back on something that people share This. Their debt was ridiculous even back then when they were smashing

Holland’s team had passed on it. One prominent Netflix supplier calls Bajaria’s decision “the beginning of the Walmart-ization” of the streamer. “It’s called Insatiable-gate within the halls of Netflix. It caused absolute demoralization and chaos. Everybody thought it was a terrible thing Ted did, allowing one team to greenlight something that another team had passed on.” Debby's power!
