    Oof. I guess sailing the high sees is back on the table.

    We are back to cable pricing, but shows and movies are all over the place and now we need multiple apps to track us.

      It's funny because everyone predicted this would happen back when Netflix had everything and was $5. "Eventually other companies are going to make their own apps, put in ads, increase prices and we'll be back to $80 a month"

        In the meantime Netflix content is getting worse, possibly they reached the threshold which customers can't excuse the expenditure.

          Netflix is definitely the service that's closest to my bubble. Sometimes I then see something I'm interested in but I don't watch a huge amount of video and Netflix has gotten really pricey.
