Netflix: Love is sharing a password (2017)

In 2015, I would have been all over that. But with every media company wanting their piece of my wallet, I have a hard time justifying paying for Netflix on its own.

Part of the appeal of sharing your account is that it brings the effective cost closer to $5/mo/person at most.

Or, what most people I know do: one person pays for Netflix, one for Disney+, one for HBO, etc. Even if I can get a single screen 4K plan for say, $10, there’s no way I’m paying $50 for 5 different services for just myself.

Thanks. That’s a bit different than the other user’s reasoning that the single screen plan ought to support 4K, since the single screen 480p plan costs $10/mo, twice what you’re willing to pay for a service.

You valuing access around $5/mo suggests Netflix’s experimental pricing of $3-4/mo per shared login might be dialed in, though.
