Last time they tried to spin it off it did not go well in terms of PR. Maybe it is easier to shut off a feature than it is to ask for it to be a paid feature?

Not to be smug, but my feeling at the time of Qwikster was that if they didn't spin it off they would shut it down. Didn't expect it to live on for another decade though. https://www.theverge.com/2012/7/11/3153720/netflix-qwikster-dvd-spinoff-hastings https://www.theverge.com/2012/7/11/3153720/netflix-qwikster-...
