I feel like other streaming platforms will follow the same process as they’ve proven it’s worked.

    I think I am more annoyed by their pricing plans following this move. They are double dipping by charging more for additional screens and then preventing users from using said additional screens. They shouldn’t have tiered pricing plans by number of screens if they have no intention of honouring them.

      Yeah that all sucks, which is why I unsubscribed to it. But I also understand I don’t deserve it for free.

      They’re not preventing you from using more screens. If you want to watch Netflix while the kids watch Netflix in another room, that’s what the multiple device plans are for.

        Unless I want to watch from my holiday home. Or if my kids want to watch Netflix at my ex’s house. Or if I travel regularly. Or I want to regularly watch Netflix with my friend or girlfriend at their house. There are numerous reports of restrictions on all of these, so they clearly are limiting the number of screens I can use.
