Perhaps Netflix should have never turned a blind eye in the first place.   Family sharing is one thing but this has gone far beyond that and as usual, people take things too far and kill the Golden Goose. Adding an ad-supported tier and offering no ads at extra cost seem perfectly reasonable. I hope they do something like Apple with Family sharing of apps, which seems to work.

Good. Final reason to dump it. 

I don’t have Netflix but like the ad supported Hulu.  It gives time to get up and go to fridge or even learn something about a product or service.  We’ve had ads since the early days of TV,  no big deal.

What? It’s software related so why does the hardware have anything to do with it? If they can update the software later to make AirPlay work they can do it now.

I find it interesting that people and governments continue to demand that Apple build their products a certain way. What gives anyone the right to tell Apple how to create and manufacture their products? There’s certain standards that are required for every product but not the level demanded of Apple. Many products are glued together with no option for repair yet nobody is going after these products. Many products are design for single use. Why aren’t these required to be repairable? Look at cars. Get in an accident and most are considered totaled or beyond repair but unless they’re flattened they could be repaired. Where are the tools, parts and manuals to rebuild the front end of a new car? Oh wait, it’s not economically feasible to repair them. Computers are getting so small that repairing them to their original state just doesn’t make economic cents (pun intended).

What Michael Bay universe are you living in where most cars that get into accidents are considered “totaled”?

Car repairs happen all the time.

The EV future is even more removed from the you fix it era.
