Netflix 2018 Price Hike

[max_boost]

Netflix can do it but if I raise my lunch box prices by $0.50 ppl lose their minds. So scare I haven’t raised prices in almost 4 years lol and someone said it’s cuz I’ve been overcharging lol trolls

Netflix going to cut 4K bitrate in half, apparently did so in Europe at the beginning of the pandemic and it's no bueno.

Next year they'll announce a new tier of subscription, with higher bitrates.

^ Wouldn't surprise me. They've slowly been pushing people back to going full pirate, ease of use is nice but some people personally don't have issues obtaining Netflix shows elsewhere and loading into Kodi.

netflix has been getting worse for years no doubt. I'm dropping my subscription down, maybe cancel and will pick it up for a month or two a year to catch up on the 5-6 remaining things that I enjoy.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they can pull it off. I met and had drinks with a few guys on their encoding team a couple years ago in Vegas, and the ideas they were talking about to find further optimizations was eye opening. The biggest problem is that they target under 50” TVs when determining video quality, so for us with bigger TVs we’re the exception and suffer from poorer quality when they optimize further. That’s why Netflix is the worst when it comes to 4K quality.
