Makes sense except if pricing is an issue for you then just wait until the season is over and you can still binge it and pay the same price

When the last 2 seasons of
Game of Thrones was on TV
I never watched it during its scheduled time..

I waited until the season was over because the binge method is how I got used to watching it
Just to catch up
if I had to wait to watch that show there was no way in hell I would've sat through it

I never woulda had the patience
Or even remember what the hell was going on
Or who the characters were and why they're related


Most is their customer base is expecting to binge

If you change it now and that's gonna piss off way more people who are already mad

If you must do that It would be smarter to only do that with their original content and leave the other stuff the way it is
I do this as well. I don't start a show until all the episodes drop or at least close to it. And if Netflix starts to do this then people will wait til all the episodes to drop or watch week to week just like they do for HBOMax and Disney. And if they wait it out it still helps their shows stick around longer. Outside of Squid Games, nothing last at all on Netflix past two weeks. That top 10 ranking they have is the fastest rotating in and out top ten I've ever seen in my life. People that binge won't get too mad cause damn near everyone has at least two or more services they subscribe to -so how mad or upset are you going to get at Netflix for doing one episode per week when you're perfectly fine with HBOMax and Disney+ doing it? Plus everyone knows changes are coming plus they really haven't had anything that hot in a minute that would make someone want to binge 10-12 episodes in 2-3 sittings tbh. Dropping all the episodes at once it killing them literally. It was all fine and dandy when they were the only game in town but shyt done changed now.

Increasing prices with little in the way of return, cancelling good shows on cliffhangers like Archive81 - that still hurts, will get you to this point.

.. if there's nothing to watch then none of this matters

Netflix will continue and just become irrelevant like Napster

And People will move on

They need to create an experience that is different than what everyone else is doing so yeah they need to change but whatever they change into needs to fit what the people want


They need to get creative think outside the web
Maybe they need live events
Create hybrid shows with user content and old formulas
Like that Black Mirror episode with the Game Show
Or some "The Running Man" type vibe (not literally that just a reality show for the masses)

Make the shyt interactive

If they correct shyt now they'll be alright. They'll lose some subs they still have the biggest subscriber base and is worldwide. They just have to tighten up the ship. Its mostly dumb shyt from the past like encouraging password sharing, blowing billions on subpar filler content, stacking and releasing too many shows at once, etc. They were going to go through this anyways as it wasn't going to be infinite nonstop growth, non stop hits, the only streaming company around, billions and billions spent on content, etc. Facebook, Twitter, Apple, Microsoft, etc. all had a rough patch and gut punch to recover from. Netflix is finally getting theirs now. The other streaming sites will feel it too sooner or later if not now as everything has almost capped out now as the streaming market is cluttered and cramped asf. Hulu and Disney might have to eventually merge, CNN+ died in only a months time. HBOMax has the juice now but we still have to see how many subs they add off of Netflix's troubles. Netflix will be alright if they smarten up and tighten the ship starting now, They still have over 200 million subscribers worldwide
