    200,000 users is like a piss in the ocean for Netflix, especially when every other major streaming platform is also hiking prices, introducing ads and cracking down on account sharing.

    We are still far from the days of cable.

      The significance of this, in my opinion, isn’t that Netflix lost 200,000 users in Australia, but that for the first time Netflix has seen a decline of users in Australia. No more line goes up, oh no!

      Either way, this is probably less from password crackdowns, more people jumping to alternative streaming platforms.

      Who does your post serve? It’s definitely meaningful, especially inn a relatively smaller population like Australia.

      Your post smells like piss.

        you ever talk to somebody who bought like 100 dollars of stock in a company? Not saying I know exactly what kind of piss this is, but I suspect this is the most common type of piss.

        I had a friend who had been given microsoft stock in the 90s and he could not say anything negative about it.
