I did for Prime.
Netflix didn't put ads in for me, since I was already on the "4K" plan. Didn't they just throw in an even lower tier for their ad version?
I dropped it with the new policy on sharing, although I didn’t wait for their follow through. As a divorced parent with kids, including one in college, if your family plan doesn’t work for my family because they may sometimes live in other locations, you’re out. I was ok paying for the family plan, but if you’re going to hassle one kid when he’s at my ex’s or the other at school, how is that worth my money?
Yeah, I agree that's a crap policy for any family that may be spread over more than one household like that.
Do they actually cut you off if you ignore them and carry on doing it anyway?
I didn’t wait for them to follow through. I decided I didn’t have to spend money with a company that was going to treat me as a criminal
