Not me. When me and hubby couldn’t watch different shows at the same time in the same house a room apart, I cancelled the account and never looked back. They’ll never get my money again.

Same. Super annoying.

Me either. I left when they rolled that rule out in South America last year to test it. Netflix forgot that we went to them because cable was extorting us. As long as the internet remains a thing, there will always be other options.

Yep I cancelled mine. Not worth it. The shows they have been coming out with aren't even very good and they lost a lot of old favorites

I thought this was the exact reason why they bundle multiple streams with almost all subscriptions. To provide multiple people in a household the option to stream their own stuff. Did you have only one single stream?

[–] Kittiesmom13@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I replied earlier, but I guess it didn’t stick for some reason. Yes, we have only one single stream.

Yes, only one single stream
