Netflix plans to crack down on password sharing (new rules) (theglobeandmail.com)

I am the account owner for my Netflix account but I do share it with one family member and one friend. I rarely use it myself, maybe once a month. If I can't share it, I don't think I need it.


Password sharing can be thought of a trial version of Netflix, before someone actually subscribes, so I don't think it's always bad. This is probably why Netflix has not come down harder on it.
