Canceled my sub a year ago (which had lasted since the Blockbuster days) when I heard about the changes and never looked back. Their horrible treatment of talent and their refusal to provide proper residuals is one of the main dynamics driving the SAG AFTRA strike. Imagine being a major actor in a show millions are actively watching, and your monthly check from it is $27.

Side note, Netflix has 3.5 billion in free cash on hand. Once the strike was announced, they scaled back their content investment and are now claiming 5 billion in cash reserves.

These fuckers can absolutely afford to pay their talent a living wage. Until they do, they aren't getting a dime from me.

Which was expected and a reason their stock bounced back despite what the geniuses on Reddit would have you believe. People legitimately boycotting a service because the provider told them they had to pay for it. The logic of some people is absolutely baffling.

Short-term gains at the expense of long-term retention. Sounds like they're looking to sell.

So what would be the best Kodi addon, because I haven't used it in years and not up to date? When I try to look it up it is just vpn resellers.

This is funny, because there's another post saying "Netflix earnings down"
