After quitting i feel like im missing out on nothing. I sail the seas if i actually need anything, and it probably wasn't on netflix anyway
I never had Netflix. Or any streaming subscription. I considered it once, several years ago, but I couldn't justify it at prices then, and I sure as shit won't waste my money now. I'll help them save their bandwidth.
I had Netflix and Hulu about 10 years ago and it was worth it. Then I dropped Netflix and got Prime. Dropped Prime and Hulu then did Disney+ bundle...that was good but now I sail the seas with friends. So much better. So many movies and shows I would have missed out on.
I didn't mind the small increase to 11.99, but the way they're doing this just rubs me the wrong way.
They're not only increasing the sub price, but tinkering with the display quality too AND laying people off... Netflix just doesn't deserve my cash when I can access most of this content via other means.
I got rid of a bunch of subs at the beginning of the year, getting rid of NF too.
