Uh, isn't Netflix already getting "the revenue associated with that viewing" when I pay the membership fee every month?
As soon as this is rolled out in the US, I'll just cancel my membership entirely. The only reason I keep it now is so my family members can use it, and even they barely bother to utilize it these days because the catalog is generally quite lame.
I loved when Netflix was a simple monthly fee, but they've been nickel and diming us ever since the 4k extra fees began. Complexity in an oversaturated streaming market doesn't seem wise.
It will be a great way to reveal true colors, turns out they greedy AF, raising prices when inflation is hitting working folks who aren't getting raises.
This closed the conversation for me on this one. Spot on. This is the bottom truth on why this is a fairly epic business blunder (+commercials?!)

Is this common in companies? I know it's a matter of opinion exactly how much the goodwill of customers is worth, but do companies ever make even a rough guess at putting a number on such things? I've never seen it done. Like people, companies seem to operate by emotion.
So I think you're right that their doing it based on emotion, but it's probably more about overall strategy than just the math of how much money they'll lose in the short term.
