How does Netflix compare to the other streamers, here and abroad?
Australian streamers were hit with another Netflix price hike this week, the second since May. Angry subscribers are threatening to boycott the service, according to The Nightly, but are they being too hasty?
Mumbrella decided to run the ruler over streaming pricing, with a comparison to other Australian services and where we sit in terms of the world pecking order. Is Netflix still worth it?

Platform is garbage now anyway. Library is literally a fraction of what it once was, so all you’re paying for is access to the latest big monthly doco eg. The Last Dance etc.
It wasn’t a Netflix “price rise” it was a “price update”!
I would guess that subscribers are even more annoyed because of this Orwellian doublespeak. Irritating corporate nonsense.
