What did they mean by this?
Those jews, expecting compensation for their work and keeping your prices lower out of good will
>>71012783
Human greed knows no boundaries.

>waaah waaaahh waaaaaahi want illegal content waaaaahaawahwhahaahw
I'm not really educated on economies or markets or money AT ALL, but when a business becomes more successful with an exponentially rising amount of customers, shouldn't they usually lower prices instead of raising them because they don't need that much money per customer any more to keep the business afloat and also to show off that they have better prices than their competition as a possible selling point?
>>71013056
>Netflix
>competitors
Lost me there.
>>71013056
No son, go back to school.
>>71012990
Holy fuck that's not even good bait and I almost fell for it.
>>71013138
Really says something about you doesn't it
>>71013138
It's not bait.
It is basically you.
>>71013056
Why be a price leader when you can be a product leader? It's like asking Audi to sell their sedans at Corolla prices.
>>71013056
No, they find the max profits by testing how high they can raise their prices while only losing a small portion of their clients.
>>71013056
It depends on the competition and their prices but most probably not.
10 bucks a month is nothing, though
how can you complain about this?
even 30 bucks a month would be acceptable
>>71013450
>>71013099
Amazon Prime has a bigger selection and more original series.
>>71013491
i'm unironically not baiting
or are you trying to bait me?
seriously, de-bait me here. why is 10 bucks a month for unlimited access to tons of entertainment supposed to be bad?
do you guys not have jobs?
>>71013551
>waisting money on something you can get for free
>>71013548
And it's US only, netflix is pretty much worldwide
>>71013491
10 bucks for unlimited watchings(is it? i never used it) of movies and shows is pretty damn good.
i think it used to cost about 2-3 bucks to rent two movies back in the day so 10 bucks is basically nothing.
2 packs of fags, 2 meals at the dicks or like 5 bottles of coke.
its nothing.
>>71013138
It's not bait you fucking retard. You are literally complaining about not being able to steal content.
>>71013548
I've only heard good buzz about Transparent, what else does Amazon have?
>>71013670
Amazon Prime is not US only.
>>71013626
I used to pirate because there was literally no alternative. Now that argument doesn't really hold up any more.
Also, netflix is way more convenient than pirating.
>We're gonna raise the price
>We're gonna give up more tv shows and movies so we can make more original programming

>>71013056
What is inflation, Alex?
I unsubscribed when the ceo said he will never allow temporary downloads and think people who want them are retards.
So i'm stuck with a service, that buffers a maximum of 30 seconds ahead and you can't use on planes.
call me when you 180 on that decision you cunts.
>>71012783

WILL NETFLIX EVER RECOVER FROM THIS?

Netflix fucking blows for content, dude
>>71013056
>shouldn't they usually lower prices instead of raising them because they don't need that much money per customer any more to keep the business afloat
typically yes
but you're not taking into account inflation.
>>71013056
The cost they have to pay studios to license their shows and movies is constantly rising.
>>71012783

I hate this. preloading videos is essential for most households with <20Mb speeds. I have 50 but at peak traffic times I still hit buffering gaps. It's frustrating.
I pretty much only rent from Xbox/Microsoft now. That plays offline just fine.
>>71013713
>Also, netflix is way more convenient than pirating.
Convenient, but the selection is dogshit. It's extremely rare that I can't find something on public trackers and so turn to netflix to find it, and not the opposite
Thanks for reminded me it's time to cancel.

>>71013056
Actually, sometimes you can actually increase your sales by raising your prices. A lot of people will automatically assume the most expensive thing is the best. Marketers have been taking advantage of this for decades. Depending on what demographic you're targeting it's sometimes best to raise your prices.
>>71013893
Fuck off gay guy. My Comcast bill is already over $200 bucks.
Instead of spending a monthly fee on netflix, why not just buy a 1 or 2 TB hard drive and pirate everything? It'll save you money in the long run. If you have shit internet that can't regularly download 10-20GB shows or movies then you don't have good enough internet for netflix in the first place
>>71014013
Because I'm not a poor degenerate and like to contribute to society.
>>71013905
Impossible at HD quality.
8Mb is roughly 1MB/s
HD rentals are 1.2-1.5MB/s
I only subscribe a few months out of the year because I want to show my lack of support for their awful original programming and poor selection in general.
It means that piracy has never been more worth it and that disgusting KYKES can fuck off.
>>71013704
Their video service is, I've used amazon prime trials to buy some shit and have free 2 day shipping, I tried to watch some movies since their selection seemed good and it wouldn't let me, meanwhile netflix works just fine
>>71014091
Sony Entertainment pls go
>>71014091
Your money is not going to the people that actually made the shows and movies, not even remotely close. Currently it's going to great Adam Sandler Netflix movies like The Ridiculous 6 and The Do-Over. So nice job.
>>71014107
Incorrect.
It always streams in HD after a second or two.
>>71014190
uhh, I'm in the UK and use Amazon Prime Video.
Netflix's selection over here is pretty awful.
>>71014190
No, it works in the UK.
>>71014013
because I'm to lazy to set up a seedbox
>>71013687
>2 packs of cigarettes cost 10 bucks
what the fuck is wrong with your country?
>>71014213
>Your money is not going to the people that actually made the shows and movies, not even remotely close
It goes to Netflix paying a licensing fee for other films and shows to stream, which goes to a studio/distributor, which then goes to producing/distributing other films and shows. That's how the business works, things are paid for in advance in hopes of making money in the future.
>>71014571
>tfw 1 pack of cigarettes costs €6,25 here
>>71013837
I have <20MB speeds and I can watch 4k fine
Your ISP is cucking you
>>71014571
In the Uk an average pack is £8.00 which = $11.50
>>71014654
And in this case, the movies that are being produced are essentially just vacations for adam sandler and his friends
The only thing I have watched in the past two months on Netflix is Peaky Blinders. All other remotely good shows on Netflix can be found elsewhere. Netflix just paid to make this show an exclusive. I will be cancelling on a matter of principle because they are raising mine too. 10 dollars a month isn't that much, but the fucks have a substandard selection. I can't wait for this whole Netflix fad to die. It doesn't encourage cord cutting, 2.3% percent of people cut cable in 05, it fell to only 1.5% in 2010 and 2.5% cut cable in 2015. It always hovers around the 2% number. Increasing prices discourage people from cable, not watching literally nothing on Netflix.
>>71014571

Pack of cigs are regularly $6-7 where I live, unless you go for a cheap brand.
>>71014678
20 MBps is not the same as 20 Mbps
>>71014728
Way to ignore what I said and make the same stupid point.
Paying for a Sony movie means some of that money goes to making Ghostbusters 16, do you boycott any studio to prevent the movies you don't like being made?
>>71014571
It should be that way. Tobacco is a cancer, just like you.
>>71012783
the value of the dollar has diminished
>>71014766
I have 20mbps
I download things at 2.4mb/s
>>71014777
If you want to support them then buy their DVDs directly, netflix gives them almost no money by comparison
>>71014778
>people don't have agency so the state should tax things in order to control our behavior
how about you quit being a cuck
>>71012783
>and here's some shit comedians shows we've funded with your subcucktions
I'm surprise they're not tackling down on people using their friends accounts.
>>71014795
Then you're using the wrong notation.
Mbps = megaBITS per second
MB/s = megaBYTES per second
1080p is usually 1.2 - 1.5 MB/s
4K would be fine if your connection is 20 MB/s but that would be 200 Mbps
>>71014852
How about you stop being a fag and stop possessing an addictive personality.
>>71014882
Piss off, nerd.
>>71014882
hey autist
you're ignoring the point
I CAN watch 4k with a connection you said it's possible to even watch 1080p
you're wrong and your ISP is fucking you
>>71014902
but I don't even smoke you cuck
>>71014948
Nope. It's math. A film won't stream properly if your connection is below the threshold unless there's a buffering period beforehand.

About as retarded as my dad, who'd rather spend his time downloading and burning cd's with music than pay $8 for spotify, but when I pay it for him he doesn't touch his CDs.
reminder that Netflix is like 15 years old and is only NOW starting to make a profit, kind of,
10 dollars ain't shit, that's lunch.
i only cancelled it cus it looks disgusting now that I have a big TV.
bitrate is too damn low even on my 120mbit connection

There is a difference between being sensible with your money and being a jew about it. Unless you're dirt poor, ten bucks per month isn't something you need to make a major decision over.

there's an argument for convenience, though it's not very convenient to have to subscribe to many different services to see just a couple of shows
>>71015515
I maxed out my ratio in a week lol.
>>71013249
Yeah, if you actually have a product to sell. You're not producing anything you're just giving someone access to watch TV shows and movies.
>>71015510
It's more the millennial way to want things for free and not wanting to pay for services, millennial
>>71015595
>you're not producing anything
In future do not comment if you have no idea what you are talking about, kid.
>>71015638

>>71015659
'no'
>>71015595
Netflix make original shows and movies but what they're mainly selling is convenience. You can stream their service on literally any gadget or tv which makes it seem worth it. It's always there if you want it.
>>71015510
I can promise you i'm in a better spot financially than you, "kid". And I spend less than 20% of my wage per month, I think I know enough. Tell me, do you insist on using single ply toilet as well, and dumpster dive? you know, those toilet squares add up!
I also have ad-free hulu. It's great. It also makes you not look poor.

I'm super jealous amerifats get criterion + hulu. their deal is ending soon though which will soon make hulu useless unless you like network tv repeats.

BRAVISSIMO NETFLIX
>>71015941
Jokes on you, I haven't felt good about myself in ten years. Thanks for conceding though.
Just pirate stuff lol
I'll pay ten bucks a month to watch random documentaries I'd never hear of otherwise, be able to give movies and TV shows a shot without having to seed for days on btn or ptp, and having parks or the office or peep show autoplay me to sleep every night. "u can get it for free" a retarded way of looking at things sometimes. I wonder how many of you anti Netflix kiddies live your lives this way or if cost only outweighs convenience when it can be found without leaving your room.
