18 billion yearly profit last I checked.
Not enough.
Never enough.
I am a shareholder of Netflix. If they don't make more profit this year the stock will go down and I will lose money.
I use some of the income from my Netflix stock to pay for my Netflix subscription.
Edit: looks like I just made 12% since this announcement came out!
True capitalism, the only thing that matters is if the stocks go up. More profits, all the time, or we call it a depression. Lol.
I can't tell if you're trying to justify ever-increasing profits and screwing over customers.
Your profits from stocks are nobody's concern.
Fuck everyone else, you got yours, right?
FOH
Calm down, it's just movie streaming. I didn't invest in bioweapons.
I don't know if there could have been a comment that sums up the problem. To this person Netflix is no longer a product; it's not about the best content or the best experience anymore. It's about getting your buck.
Netflix used to have the best content online at the best price. It now has neither and I don't know how anyone still rationalizes subscribing.
Yikes dude.
DON'T DO THAT
We're all super impressed.
