This isn't really a surprise. At least, not to me. More choices, more competition out there. Folks can choose based on the kinds of things they enjoy watching.

Disney seems to be the benificiary.

My guess is because there are lots of families with young kids, and those who are into Star Wars and Marvel.

all that disney catalogue is now gone for netflix and others.

i think netflix's content is just about the worst of the major streaming services, honestly, and when you consider the price, it's almost shoddy.

i'm not some malcontent. i want everything to be good. but of all the streaming services i use (7 pretty regularly, 6 of them paid services), i used netflix the least, and they're the most expensive. if i cut any out, they'll definitely be the first to go.

MY DAUGHTER AND I HAD NETFLIX FOR A BIT TO SEE FULLER HOUSE...THEN WE FINISHED THE SHOW...I WOULD SCROLL AND ADD SHIT TO MY LIST...BUT I EITHER NEVER GOT AROUND TO WATCHING IT OR IT WASNT VERY GOOD...SO WE CANCELLED OUR SUBSCRIPTION.

do you use any other streaming services, or do you just watch your gigantic collection of tapes & discs?

reply

I WATCH REDLETTERMEDIA,ANGRY VIDEO GAME NERD,CINEMASICKNESS,MINTY COMEDIC PRODUCTIONS,AND A FEW OTHERS ON YOUTUBE AT NIGHT IN MY BEDROOM...OTHER THAN THAT 100% PHYSICAL MEDIA...HAVENT EVEN TOUCHED THE TV REMOTE IN OVER A YEAR.

I've never heard of any of those.

reply

Me either

I used to have an amazing collection of VHS tapes. I kept them until about 1995, then donated to Goodwill.

reply

I MIGHT HAVE SOME OF THEM BY NOW.

reply

Do you have Seems like old times, or Foul Play, Fletch.....

reply

I DO...FOUL PLAY ON VHS...COULD BE YOURS.🤯

Well, Netflix did put soft core child pornography up last year, calling it "art." I'm sure plenty of people were disgusted with the service and left as a result.

reply

Oh FFS, have you actually watched it?

reply

I think its HBO max that will really hurt them. Whether the movies are good or bad, they have a lot of the big blockbuster movies.

It's the beauty of Capitalism. You have to run your business really well, or someone else will do it better, and replace you.
Competition provides better products and services, and lower prices for the consumer.
