I had a family account, but I stopped using it since going abroad to uni once they cracked down. The amount of content is just at the point where I don’t see any value to subscribing.
Generally though, exactly what killed cable TV is killing my use of Netflix and other services. All the interesting stuff is now so spread out on so many different services, it’s just no longer worth it.
Dealing with N different subscriptions and different websites, is too much BS to deal with AND pay for, so I’m just going to run my own server.
It is trivial to sign up for a service when you want to watch something, and then cancel it when you don’t, until there’s something else you want to watch on the service. That is the benefit over cable.
Most people still treat it like a cable subscription: always on, even if they’re not watching it.
