Netflix is trying to grow ad revenue quickly.

    Hey Netflix, the amount of people are willing to endure for a paid subscription is ZERO and it will always remain so. In fact even the stupid games advertised on the top of the landing page made me use Netflix less and less, and now that they stopped password sharing I don’t use it at all

    Netflix was canceled even before twitter. It was nice until 3-4 years ago, when the quality of their service started to fall.

    I’ve had Netflix on-and-off since the DVD in the mail days. I tried Amazon Prime for the shipping years ago, when they first started playing with streaming. Those are the only two I’ve had.

    I have neither now, and if it turns out I can’t get the few shows I want to watch through other means, then I just won’t watch anymore. Passive media isn’t especially valuable to me. I have other forms of entertainment, including games, and the old stand-by, books. Outside is fun, too, when the weather isn’t crap.

    I can’t tell from the article what the AI side of this is? Are Netflix offering to make adverts for customslrs using AI? Are they just showing adverts in general from customers, including AI generated ones?

    I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong, but I’ve read the article twice and still don’t know 😂

    Is there a plugin for Stremio that provides a kid’s profile function? That’s the only thing keeping me from canceling my Netflix subscription.

    Half of new Netflix subscribers opt for the $8 per month option rather than ad-free subscriptions, which start at $18 per month, the company says.

    Damn, when did it get so expensive? Assuming that’s USD. That’s a decent amount more than Disney+, right?

    Haha, the kicker is that it’s pure greed. With their prices they don’t need it and could improve it with what the community wants, but $$$, hey… been away for nearly 2 years now, thought of tipping my toes in again but with that they can f… right off.
