I don't know. You have to put up with popups from streaming sites, sure - adblocker only stops most of them - but in general, playback is just fine and I can find most movies and shows. The allure of Netflix is simply legality, but for selection it is a step backwards from a decent streaming site.

Yes. It’s a major step back in terms of selection. And more to the point, it’s continuous major steps back every year, even compared to itself from a few years ago. Part of what people don’t seem to remember is that one of the benefits of iTunes was its huge selection. Netflix is becoming more and more like BandCamp, not iTunes, in terms of selection. I don’t go there to find something to watch anymore. I only go there if I want to watch one of the few things worth watching on it. There is currently no legal video platform for watching all the things. (And that’s ignoring the DRM crap.)
