By dropping Netflix, you can pivot to dedicated Asian entertainment platforms. These services cost a fraction of the price, feature significantly deeper libraries of Korean and Chinese dramas, and have zero expensive sports or live TV filler.
The moves have drawn immense criticism because Netflix is not losing money; in fact, the company posted a staggering $11 billion net profit on $46.6 billion in revenue for 2025, and brought in $3.4 billion in profit for Q2 2026 alone

Netflix did exactly that. In September 2026, Netflix raised its subscription costs, including a 33% price hike, weeks later in October 2026 by laying off roughly 1,000 employees.
Netflix put their prices up 33% to pay for live tv and sports, so I pay more for things I will never want, at the same time they sacked a ton of staff and took in record profits. Hmm, yes 33....
I'm not allowed to have a doormat because of trip risks, lol.
