I would pay for Disney +, HBO Max or Paramount + long before paying a penny for Netflix but that's a matter of opinion. And to be clear, I'm not advocating for people sharing passwords because Netflix shouldn't have to give away their service for free but people have been doing it for so long and they've now got real competition so they are definitely going to look bad when they stop people from sharing passwords. It's going back but remember how Metallica got ripped on because they wanted Napster shut down? People were saying how they were greedy and were already rich and those people ignored the very real fact that smaller bands would get screwed by people stealing music. That attitude of entitlement has only gotten worse in society and Netflix is the king of the hill so there is no way that they aren't going to look bad if they decide to stop password sharing.
Again, they are in the right with wanting people to pay for their service but they will look bad.
Not sure I'd say "look bad", but yeah, it'll probably negatively affect people's feelings toward them (and in turn their bottomline) nonetheless.
IF they're really doing this, they should probably at least also offer a cheaper 4K option for fewer streams me thinks instead of requiring the highest price to get 4K that comes w/ 4 streams.
