Netflix password sharing crackdown - anyone switching services?

Jan 10·1 min read

So we got that Netflix email about the password thing and it's annoying because my parents use our login. Trying to figure out if we just pay the extra $7 or switch to Disney+ or what. Anyone have strong opinions on this? We mostly watch family stuff (Marvel, animated series) so options are pretty open. What's your family's goto streaming setup right now?

This is what finally got me to try Hulu. Their bundle with Disney and ESPN is actually pretty good if you're into sports and don't need Netflix every single day.

Yeah same boat here. My wife's parents were mad about this too. We ended up just splitting the cost of our own account which honestly isn't that bad when you do the math on how much we use it.

Switched to Hulu and honestly the ad-supported tier is fine for us. Barely notice the ads and saving like 40 bucks a month helps when you've got kids in activities.

The password sharing thing killed me because I have like 4 different households using my login. Ended up switching to Disney+ for a few months just to see if it was worth it. Not really.
