solosnake 12/10/19 4:31:39 PM #1:	https://www.cnn.com/2019/12/10/media/netflix-stock-sell/index.html Shares of Netflix (NFLX) fell more than 2% Tuesday after Needham analyst Laura Martin downgraded the stock to an "underperform" essentially a "sell" rating. Martin said that if Netflix keeps its prices where they are currently in a range of $9 to $16 a month the company will lose 4 million subscribers in the United States next year. Her solution: Offer an option that costs only about $5 to $7 a month and features an advertising block of about six to eight minutes an hour. --- "We would have no NBA possibly if they got rid of all the flopping." ~ Dwyane Wade https://imgur.com/MYYEIx5 https://imgur.com/WGE12ef <cite>solosnake posted [p:931385874] in Netflix ma...

Three 90 second breaks for 22-24ish minute episodes. As long as I can keep an adless service at the price ($0 lol) I'm paying I don't care tbh.

Then again, streaming rights for everything else have gotten a lot more expensive & Disney's taking all their stuff back (Fox stuff too) so they don't have a lot they can do. All these streaming sites are going to be a mess for the next few years as they fight for the biggest market. <cite>garan posted [p:931386256] in Netflix ma...
