I rarely use mine but keep it for 2 reasons.

1. I "feel" like there might be something I want to watch at some point. Just kinda in the back of my head.

2. Its 10$/mo that I'm not even going to notice missing.

As their price increases I'll likely cancel. There is something about being at or under 10$ vs being over that triggers me to reevaluate even if I still wouldn't notice the extra couple bucks.

This is me as well.

At $10 I’m not even that bothered about content quality.

These days content is spread out over a bunch of providers, some much more expensive due to movies, sports and live events.

I’m paying for four separate streaming services, and at $10 netflix just defaults.

At a higher price quality content will have to increase.
