I'll give up my netflix when they pry my cold dead fingers from my remote control! :lol:

They'll gain as many users as they lose.

Seems like more and more of Netflix TV shows and movies are foreign made with subtitles. If I wanted to read instead of watch the action, I'd get a book. Thinking about going back to Hulu. I don't remember as much stuff with subtitles there.

Knowing their going to be tied in with obummer just makes it all that much more attractive to dump them.

Some of the movies that have foreign language theres a way to change the language. I did it once but I cant remember how. It wont work with them all Im sure.

I use a roku box and there are an awful lot of other free channels on it. Some good older westerns on the other ones including a lot of John Wayne. I watch mostly series shows and documentaries on Netflix with a movie once in a while.

One function I wish Netflix had and that I know of they dont is a blocking feature.

We find that we're watching more old movies on You Tube than new ones on Netflix.

We prefer the old movies to newer ones because the dialog is not being buried by music. Not sure why the movie industry has in recent years thought that loud music playing while the actors are talking makes movies better. :evil:

Hahahahaha agreed! I think the thing to do is kinda review your “TV” subscriptions every 6 months or so and if you feel your not getting your money’s worth, go to another vendor.

I have to say though I can’t stand the thought of paying the Wookiee’s & her “husbands” salaries......eeek gad 🤯
