What kind of movies and tv shows do you like?

I don't really watch TV, but I mostly like arthouse, old, experimental and old films.

There's diminishing returns as stuff gets divided more and more between the different streaming services.

You should got it in 2011-2012 like everyone else, netflix had everything back then.

I have him as my friend he has intruduced me to artist such as Lenka and granted I haven't read a single book since high school I do have a list of books he has recommended in the past if I ever decide to read one.

Worth is very subjective, I know a guy, lets call him Wesley, now Wesley had a collection of porn (some of it might have been illegal) that he really valued, his parents didnt think it was worth anything and threw it out

I just wish you could keep scrolling movies and shows endlessly but its usually in the form of Top 25 suggestions or whatever the rest you have to search

No, it uses to be the only one so it had tons of options.

This year with all the competition they've greatly reduced it to mainly netflix exclusive content, which is fine but not worth money

I don't feel it's really worth it. For what you enjoy, I would recommend Criterion's streaming channel.

If youve never had it I am sure they have enough original content as of now to make you happy for atleast a month or more. They have a big enough variety of shows and movies you should find enough to warrant a subscription for a bit.

Now if your talking about returning to it then I dont know.

It used to be great before so many other streaming services popped up and split content up. Now people seem to keep it out of lazy habit. Last month I saw that absolutely nothing I'd be interested in was going to be added so I shut it down.

However this seemed to annoy my bf and he started his own account, even without anything specific to watch. This last month has made it obvious he takes some sort of comfort in scrolling through a bunch of crap and just settling on watching reruns to justify keeping Netflix.

I am enjoying Netflix again after discontinuing it for several years.

Surprisingly, for me at least, Im liking the Korean suspense titles a lot more than Western ones.

This. The fact that all good series and movies have been spread out over all these various streaming services as exclusives makes literally every streaming service just kinda... meh.

Man. All my wife watches now is Korean dramas on Netflix. She has actually been through them all at this point. Some of the shows are pretty good.

It is worth it if you can afford it for convenience of whenever you want to use it. I'd probably cancel if I was as poor as I used to be.

Maybe with a VPN

Yep, I agree. Maybe the production quality is not as high as many Western shows, but everything else is great. I also didnt know there are so many to choose from. Like your wife, girls I know are really into the dramas. Netflix has a good lineup.

Yes.

It's alright. They'll generally put up a few things a year I'm interested in, but it hasn't been "great" since like 2010.
