    This is such an blatant lie it doesn't deserve any more thought than this: bullshit. And there's the truth, in mealy-mouth.

    We’ve always made it easy for people who live together to share their Netflix account with features like profiles and multiple streams. While these have been hugely popular, they’ve also created confusion about when and how you can share Netflix.

    This is such an blatant lie it doesn't deserve any more thought than this: bullshit.

    Today, over 100 million households are sharing accounts — impacting our ability to invest in great new TV and films.

      impacting our ability to invest in great new TV and films

      Why don't companies just admit that profits are a valuable part of their business, and not making enough profit is an existential threat to the company's existence?

      I guess then they'd have to wrestle with the notion of "how much profit is enough", which would lead directly to their customers wondering the same thing.

      I'm not opposed to profitability: a business needs to stay profitable to survive; that's the whole point: customers get (hopefully good) products, owners get to live off their work. I'm opposed to large conglomerates raking in the dough all the time, without reinvesting it.
