I don't know if anyone else does this, but I subscribe to netflix for a while, then I hit a wall of "nothing to watch" and new content that I'm interested in dribbles out too slowly. So I unsubscribe and subscribe with a different streaming service, and watch their content for a bit, then go to another, and then eventually come back to netflix. If it's been long enough I also get free trials for another month also :)
- keyle 8y agoYeah I keep opening Netflix nowadays and I click around for a while and have not much interesting to watch. There is a lot of STUFF, but it's not worth my time.
- madrox 8y agoYou've basically described the streaming business these days. Listening to talks from Netflix, they optimize for this kind of behavior. While they're interested in retention, they have a pretty optimized winback funnel.
- whoisjuan 8y agoThere's a large percentage of users who won't go through all that trouble just to find new content. Anecdotally I can tell you that there's a large percentage of users who can re-watch the same series over and over (I'm one of those people). Netflix knows this so that's why they go great lengths to keep series like The Office and Friends, btw, both owned by Comcast...so you can guess why Netflix is cheering for Comcast to win that Fox bid...
