Okay, I can share a DVD with my friends or neighbours, but I can't share my account? How does this make any sense?

Maybe the idea is like how you can't go to a buffet and share food with someone who hasn't paid the entry fee

But you can't eat the same food twice.

But you can watch the same video twice.

With food, atoms move irreversibly in one direction. With video, there is no such constraints.

You can share the password to all 8 Billion people on earth, but not the DVD.

netflix still has stream limits based on your pricing plan, so even if you share the password with 8 billion people only 1-4 can use it at a time
