    • @vullord666
      @vullord666 2 роки тому +93

      This was part of the problem though. It was ALWAYS going to go down this route. They offered customers too much value for too little cost while at the same time having no way to support creators and make up for the massive losses. Look at the music and entertainment industries. When Spotify and Netflix showed up, they DESTROYED revenue. And then they trained users to expect that stupid high amount of value. Take password sharing for example. That is an AWFUL misuse of any subscription especially when it was originally unlimited, but Netflix waited too long to do anything about it and now fixing that problem makes everyone angry because they’re used to having it. As time went on the only way they could recoup losses is by raising subscription prices and using originals to force users to their subscription. The problem is that Netflix was never a platform, but solely a service. There’s no way to buy to own or support creators.
      Compare it instead with Microsoft’s more recent Xbox Game Pass. There are no exclusives to the service. Any game on it you can still buy on console or pc with a 20% off discount. Movies don’t have dlc or microtransactions so that’s unique to games, but you also get 10% off of those. The library isn’t thousands, but hundreds and enough that they aren’t offering too much value for the cost. There was no password sharing in the beginning, making the family plan the norm. Indie developers praise it for boosting their games exposure and Microsoft themselves have stated they’ve seen at least a 40% increase in subscribers BUYING games.
      All Netflix needs to do is encourage buying again and stop forcing a subscription service that’s JUST a money sink. For example say they put each season of stranger things up on their own storefront (which there’s also a massive gap in the industry for a single entertainment store that you can access across PC, ios, and android) for $20. One person buying that would already give them a free extra sub cost (actually more). Then let’s say they give a discount on the sticker price that only cuts off $5, but makes it look more attractive. Then let’s say they put all the movies and tv shows they had on their with that discount. They’d get to keep AT LEAST 10% of profits from all sales in addition to what they get from the subscription cost and 100% for selling their own originals.

      @@vullord666 Agree with the first half entirely but the second half is a big no from me dawg. I don't want to buy things. I watch maybe 1% of all the media I've ever watched more than once. Buying movies and TV shows is almost always dumb, unless it's for a child who will happily watch it 100x. Nothing they do to make buying media attractive would ever work on me, and that goes double for most of gen z.
      Video games are different for many reasons, not the least of which being that they are effectively made to be played more than once. If Netflix had jacked up prices back before they had like 6 competing platforms they would have set a standard that wouldn't have required all the other services to be super cheap as well. Now jacking prices makes them look bad. UA-cam has a similar problem, the fact that it's free is why it sucks ass, without advertisers to satisfy they would be 1000x better. But now they are stuck because everyone expects it to be free. Selling cat videos for $2 each isn't the solution, just actually charge money for it

    The funniest thing is that their whole 'data collection' for determining whether or not to continue a series prioritizes binging, so catering to people who would just pay for a month to watch all of a show then stop a subscription. You'd think they'd prioritize shows people have finished total rather than all at once because that draws out how long they pay for their subscription.

      Highlights include making jokes about how they couldn't find a woman with D-cups (despite Japan not using double letters in their measurements), making comments that are TMI such as how parts of a skimpy dress would get stuck inside her when doing action scenes (despite the inspiration being a gunner that didn't need to move too much and the new costume not being practical for combat either) and being passive-aggressive the entire time.

      Hm if anything think one of the main issues is how many shows they cancelled because only a smaller percentage of subscribers watched it. That seems sensible on the face of it but in reality that you have something for everyone was always the big advantage of these services. Netflix seems to have understood that less and less as time went on while Prime is willing to make these shows and rarely cancels things. Seems to me Netflix was solely focused on sub growth while ignroing that they were slowly pissing of their existing customers by cancelling every second show after 2 or 3 seasons. It took a bit but now it is fucking them over and they are handling it in the worst way imaginable by doubling down on the greed.
