Netflix cracking down on the sharers has made Netflix difficult for us non-sharers. I don't want to watch Netflix on my phone, but I do want to curate my watch list on it. But because now there's a limit to the number of devices you can use, we have to reserve use for the devices we use most frequently. This means that, when we fly, getting media onto the devices we use infrequently is a PITA.

It's easier just to grab them elsewhere.

(2 ppl x 3 devices ea) + 3 other household devices > Netflix's limit. That's just us, and I'm being conservative... it doesn't count desktops AND laptops. If we had kids, it'd be worse.
