The new Netflix anti-password sharing policies are a hilarious reminder that execs at Netflix don’t remember piracy exists.
The big shift from piracy towards not streaming services, but one streaming service – Netflix – and then other equivalents, stemmed from convenience; prices were reasonable, one could share an account with a group of friends or with family members, and the catalog was acceptable for the advantages the service ultimately brought.
Netflix’ catalog-to-convenience ratio nowadays is diarrhea. For every hit they have twenty flops, they hitch up prices, and now they are implementing a truly cutthroat manner of controlling who uses an account and where from – only one primary connection may use an account, and MUST watch something every 31 days or else be blocked, all other connections will be blocked, and if you have to travel, you have to request a code, yes, request a god damn Netflix code that will let you use Netflix elsewhere but only for 7 days – that is sure to be well received by the masses.
I think Netflix forgot they are not an essential good, they are luxury, an expensive one at that, and one that can very easily be replaced with some swashbuckling yo-ho-hoing.
In an ironic twist, Netflix is pulling off a Blockbuster.
