Or at the very least they drop some moochers eating up their bandwidth who were never going to pay no matter what. It's difficult for me to see them taking a big loss. No they won't. It would be the same exact same situation as piracy. If they stopped the people from sharing the passwords then there's no evidence the people who were getting access for free would be buying the service anyway. I wasn't going to go all in with the "NO" because I could understand what he was saying with "one person buying one service and another a different and them sharing" But yea, if they don't have to run a server to stream movies to a bunch of people getting it for free it's a net gain even if the move doesn't translate into increased subscribers. <cite>BlackScythe0 posted [p:930223582] in Streaming ...
