They lost subs in areas with the password crackdown and picked up subs in lower cost areas. They earned less.
Not what the article states:
Edit: I think you‘re right about them loosing subs in areas of the crackdown and winning even more in new areas. It’s not 100% clear in this article (but apparently more so in Reuters‘).
Also not true, the msn article states they didn’t loose money, they just didn’t "win" as much as shareholders were hoping for. Quoting from your link:
Haha fair point ^^
The OP from the post you shared apparently didn’t read the article close enough, they got it wrong there (or at least it’s not worded clearly enough). So not entirely on you.
I like it when people correct themselves. I like it a lot.
No, they did not. They continued to grow. They’re a publicly traded company and all of the details were just reported out.
Just finished reading Reuters and AP, and they both agree that Netflix added 6 million in areas of cheap subscription and no crackdowns vs losses in USA and UK.
