Keep jacking the price up and shittifying the service.

Do streaming services understand why we dumped cable....like at all?

Never underestimate the mental gymnastics that your average failson / HR dweeb / professional managerial class dork is capable of.

Wasn't this the whole reason Netflix even exists? People would pay for it because it was more convenient than pirate-jammin

The good boy liberal types will sub to Netflix because "Piracy is wrong"

they'll lose 10% of subs, raise their prices 20%, it'll break even.
