It will cost $7.99 per month extra to add another user to your account.

Starting today, we will be sending this email to members who are sharing Netflix outside their household in the United States. 

A Netflix account is for use by one household. Everyone living in that household can use Netflix wherever they are — at home, on the go, on holiday — and take advantage of new features like Transfer Profile and Manage Access and Devices.

We recognize that our members have many entertainment choices. It’s why we continue to invest heavily in a wide variety of new films and TV shows — so whatever your taste, mood or language and whoever you’re watching with, there’s always something satisfying to watch on Netflix.

Meh, I haven't found a bunch I wanted to watch anyway on Netflix recently. I'd be glad to get rid of it.

So does that mean they will automatically start booting from subscriptions or charging $7.99?

So, I don’t have anything, no streaming services, no cable, etc.

If I want to watch a movie, I’ll usually just buy the dvd…

That said, if y’all were in my position and considering adding a streaming service at home, which one would be the choice?

How are they cracking down? How do they know if I am using someone's account or just traveling 325 days a year?

There is literally nothing I’m watching on Netflix right now.

I’m borderline considering canceling it too

Seems like desperation.

They invested way too much into original shows, most of which aren't very good.

Almost every other streaming service is a cheaper alternative to Netflix.

Wouldn't it be great if they lose out because more drop than the $7.99 gain?
