    I thought that Netflix would be caught out by the number of people turning to piracy, but I guess there’s also a lot of older people who have to setup their own account now that they can’t use a relative’s. Or just get the add on for the relative’s existing sub.

    I cancelled my Netflix subscription, but it looks like I might need to set one up for my mum and my nan instead :/

      Older people are an obvious demographic that won’t jump ship, but don’t turn a blind eye to the younger generation. It isn’t boomers who throw $70+ at video games on a constant basis. The threshold for a convenience/value ratio seems very low for a lot of people.

      As an unrelated and statistically insignificant anecdote, the two biggest pirates I know are both actual literal boomers.
