“nah, I actually don’t want this anymore.

This was my reaction quite a while ago. We got rid of our account because we just didn’t use it anymore and the price kept climbing.

This is just Netflix desperately trying to claw back some profit. They think they can siphon most people into higher-priced accounts.

Piracy my beloved🏴‍☠️

The thing I don't get (I do - it's greed, FYI) is why the fuck they even care? If I'm paying for 2 or 4 screens on my Netflix account, why the fuck does it even matter which address they're playing at? Netflix were about to sting me because my stepkids (who are with us half the time) were using my account while at their dad's.

Believe it or not, Netflix finally drove me to Plex. I'd been holding out, still using Kodi, but decided the money I was saving could go towards a much nicer setup, and it did. A pair of HP DL380 G7s, Proxmox - the works.

Now my stepkids use my Plex server, and have both happily streamed the latest Black Mirror from it (shit season, BTW - another hump in the downhill shitshow that Netflix has become). And the savings from my cancelled Netflix sub will have paid for it over the next 12 months or so.

Thanks Netflix! Ya dumb cunts.
