I wonder if their expensive consultants come from a little company called BCG? You're right, probably nothing.... (820)

I canโt get HBO Max where I am but is it close to $20 a month and continuing to go up while also threatening to cancel password sharing? Commercial tier isnโt the problem. Commercial tier (around the price you used to pay for normal tier) as a last ditch effort after alienating your consumer base is the problem. (95)
So you are upset that you can't break the Terms and Conditions EULA i.e.(password sharing) (-40)

Here is the full list of companies BCG has been involved in.

Netflix is a commodity distribution platform that became synonymous with streaming simply by being the first to think of and execute it well. They locked up a ton of awesome content and had explosive subscriber growth by doing streaming back when the whole industry was in a mindset of cable and physical media rentals, and saw streaming as a kind of trivial bonus. Netflix deserves a lot of credit for being first and they got paid for that foresight in spades, by getting everyone and their mother to subscribe back when all the major studios were basically handing their whole catalog to Netflix, like, "sure, if you can make a few extra bucks from this on the internet, go for it."
But, somewhat like Kleenex, Netflix is no longer particularly special. There are a lot of streaming services now, and content creators and consumers both have a lot of options. I basically cycle between one subscription service at a time, these days, maybe two. Like, I'll watch HBO for a month or two until I get bored and run out of stuff, then cancel it and get Disney+, watch the stuff I'm interested in, then cancel that and get Showtime or whatever...Netflix is in that rotation, but I'm maybe paying for a couple months every couple years, unlike years ago, when Netflix was literally the only way I watched TV, and cancelling was unthinkable. Prime Video is kinda better these days, tbh, plus it gets you free Amazon shipping, or something.
