I think I started with netflix for like 3.99 a month. that was back when its bulk programming was good and you could order a dvd. i recently moved down from the 27 or whatever it was to the ad version. Id rather watch ads than the handful of new content thats worth watching a month. I think theyre a higher percent foreign films now too. Its a shame hollywood has shit the bed because these foreign films are beating them in quality often now. I just wish I could watch them and do something else instead of reading subtitles. I think the threshold is in the 15-19 dollar range where the visibility returns. That 2 opens eyes
